Tofu is an excellent source of protein. It provides all nine essential amino acids. It also contains antioxidants that can help combat chronic disease. Since tofu is low in calories but contains many vitamins and minerals, it is known as a nutrient-dense food. So, this recipe is a tasty and healthy alternative to regular beef tacos which everyone (vegetarian or not) will love!
