Ingredients

• 8 ounces Firm tofu
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 8 leaves Romaine or butter lettuce leaves
• 1 medium, julienned Cucumber
• 1 medium, julienned Carrot
• 1 medium, julienned Red bell pepper
• 0.25 cup, chopped Fresh cilantro
• 0.25 cup Fresh mint leaves
• 1 medium, sliced Avocado
• 0.25 cup Chili sauce (optional, for dipping)

Directions

Step 1

Press the firm tofu to remove excess water by wrapping it in a clean kitchen towel and placing a heavy object (like a skillet) on top for 15 minutes.

Step 2

Cut the pressed tofu into thin strips.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu strips and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown on all sides.

Step 4

Add soy sauce and garlic powder to the skillet. Toss the tofu strips to coat evenly, and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove the tofu from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 5

Prepare the vegetables by julienning the cucumber, carrot, and red bell pepper. Chop the cilantro and leave the mint leaves whole.

Step 6

Lay one lettuce leaf on a clean surface or plate. Place a few strips of tofu in the center, followed by a small amount of cucumber, carrot, and bell pepper. Add a sprinkle of cilantro and a couple of mint leaves. Top with an avocado slice.

Step 7

Carefully fold the lettuce leaf over the filling, tucking in the sides as you roll to form a tight spring roll. Repeat with the remaining lettuce leaves and fillings.

Step 8

Serve the spring rolls immediately with chili sauce for dipping, if desired.
