ingredients
- 1 (14 ounce) block extra firm tofu, patted dry and crumbled
- 1 1/2 tablespoons tamari, or soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chipotle powder
- 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, optional

Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, mix the tamari, nutritional yeast, spices and olive oil if using. Rub evenly over the tofu crumbles. Bake on prepared pan for 15 minutes, toss, and continue cooking until browned.
Step 3
