For the tacos:

Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch, nutritional yeast, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt.
Cut the tofu into small cubes and toss them in the spice mixture until well coated.
Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu and cook until golden brown and crispy, stirring occasionally.
