If you ask me, these homemade sofritas are even better than Chipotle's! Saucy, smoky, flavorful, and fresh, they're delicious in burritos, tacos, and bowls.

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Place the onion wedges, red and green bell peppers, tomatoes, and jalapeño on one of the baking sheets. Drizzle with avocado oil and sprinkle with salt. Place the tomatoes cut side up and the peppers cut side down. Wrap the garlic cloves in foil with a drizzle of avocado oil and place on the baking sheet. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the peppers and onions are browned (the peppers will be done first), and the tomatoes are soft.
- Place the tofu on the other baking sheet, drizzle with avocado oil, and sprinkle with salt. Spread in a thin layer. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until browned and firm around the edges.
- Peel the garlic cloves and stem the jalapeño. Place them in a food processor with the onion, red and green bell peppers, tomatoes, chipotles, adobo sauce, tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Pulse to form a thick, slightly chunky sauce.
- Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sauce and the tofu and stir to combine. Add the water and cook, stirring, for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Season to taste.
- Serve in a burrito bowl or try one of the serving suggestions in the post above.
