In a large bowl, add tofu, lime juice, cilantro, garlic, salt, pepper, taco seasoning, and gochujang sauce and mix until fully combined and tofu is coated.
To a blender, add canola oil, onions, red bell peppers, salt, and tomatoes and blend on high until mixture forms into a paste. Pour mixture over tofu and toss to combine.
To a skillet or flat top on medium-high heat add tofu mixture and cook down for 5-7 minutes stirring constantly until tofu has released its moisture and has slightly browned. Remove from heat and hold hot.

Preheat oven to 400°F. Lay tortillas flat. Add 1.5oz of tofu mixture per tortilla, roll tightly tightly with ends folded in and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly spray taquitos with pan spray, and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Combine vegan mayonnaise, lime juice, vinegar, garlic and salt in a blender, process until smooth. Add cilantro and pulse until flaked throughout. Cilantro Lime Crema can be stored in a sealed container in cooler until ready for service.

In a medium bowl, combine vegan kimchi, tomatoes, onions, carrots and jalapeno peppers. Cover and hold in cooler until service.

Three taquitos per serving: Place taquitos in center of plate, top each taquito with 1 tablespoon of guacamole, 1 tablespoon of cilantro-lime crema and 1 tablespoon of kimchi pico. Serve.
