Start by draining and pressing the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into cubes or slices.
If desired, marinate the tofu in soy sauce or tamari for 10 minutes to add extra flavor. Heat a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil, and cook the tofu for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and slightly crispy. Remove from heat and set aside.
Slice the avocados or mash them in a bowl with lemon or lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to taste.
Arrange the cooked or raw tofu on a plate. Add the avocado slices or mashed avocado on top. Garnish with fresh herbs, and any optional additions like cherry tomatoes, red onion, or sesame seeds.
Serve immediately as a light meal, side dish, or healthy snack. Enjoy the combination of creamy avocado and flavorful tofu!
