3. Heat 1 tsp. olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add tofu and crumble with a fork until it looks “scrambled.” Stir in turmeric.

4. Cook tofu for 5 minutes and set aside.

5. Wipe out skillet and return to medium heat. Add tortilla chips and top with remaining 1 tsp. of olive oil. Cook for 1 minute and add onion, tomato, and cilantro. Stir and cook for 2 minutes. Return tofu to pan, stir and cook for another three minutes.

6. Spoon mixture into tortillas and top with optional vegan cheese, avocado slice, and hot sauce if you like a kick.
