Step-By-Step Instructions:
-
Zest and juice lime into a small bowl and set aside.
-
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until soft and golden, 2–3 minutes.
-
Crumble the tofu with your fingers into the skillet. Add lime mixture, bell pepper, chili powder, cumin, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
-
Cook, stirring often, until tofu turns golden brown and veggies soften, 8–10 minutes.
-
Separate the lettuce into leaves. Pile leaves in stacks of two per wrap onto plates. Fill each wrap with tofu, salsa, and cilantro.
