Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 (12 ounce) package firm tofu, drained

1/2 medium yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons nutritional yeast

Directions

1 Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Crumble tofu into roughly 1-inch pieces and add to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add canned tomatoes and cook until excess liquid has evaporated, 5 to 10 minutes. Add bell pepper and onion and cook until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, nutritional yeast, soy sauce, red pepper flakes, paprika, turmeric, and salt. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more.
2 Spread mayonnaise over sandwich buns and top with tofu mixture, spinach, and avocado.
