Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside (or use a Silpat pad).
- Drain tofu and press slightly with napkins or paper towels. Cut each tofu block into 12 equal slices. Slice the block in half, then slice each half in half again--now you have fourths. Cut each fourth into 3 slices, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Pour 1/2 cup nutritional yeast into plate. Coat each slice of tofu in nutritional yeast. Start with the edges then do the larger sides, this will minimize buildup on your fingers. Lay each slice on your prepared baking sheet.
- After all slices are coated, sprinkle liberally with your favorite no-salt seasoning.
- Bake in the oven, at 375 degrees for 30 - 40 minutes (depending on your desired crunch). You do not need to flip the slices during baking. You'll know they are ready when the edges are just starting to get brown and lift off the pan.
- Let the fingers rest for at least 5 minutes before using a spatula to remove.

CRISPY BAKED TOFU FINGERS/NUGGETS (LOW FAT)
A great tasting, vegetarian alternative to chicken fingers, these tofu versions are a real (healthful) treat. These make a nice snack, appetizer, or main course if served along a nice salad -- also great in packed lunches! Serve with your favourite dipping sauce such as teriyaki, ranch, BBQ, etc. I've served to both kids and adults with positive results so I figured I'd share the recipe. :) ***note*** Prep time listed is marinating time.

Steps:
- Wisk together tamari (or soy sauce), teriyaki, and mirin (or vinegar/sugar) Set aside.
- Cut tofu into 1/2 inch slices and then each slice into half lengthwise to get "fingers." If making "nuggets", cut tofu into 1 inch cubes. Place cubes or fingers into tamari marinade and place in fridge for at least an hour. (the longer you leave it, the more intense the flavour -- sometimes I make this ahead the night before and let it sit in the fridge overnight)
- After marinating, preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Remove tofu from marinade and shake off excess marinade. Place Shake 'n Bake mix in shallow dish or plate and coat each piece of tofu with the crumbs making sure to coat all sides. (press the tofu down into the mix to make sure it sticks well)
- Place breaded tofu on a cookie sheet that has been sprayed lightly with non-stick cooking spray and bake in oven for 10 minutes, flip tofu, then bake another 10 or until golden and crispy.
- Serve with BBQ sauce, ranch, marinara, teriyaki or any other sauce you desire! :).

Steps:
- Coat a cookie sheet with oil.
- Slice tofu lengthwise, about 1/4 inch thick, and pat dry.
- Put the sauce into a dish, and dip each piece of tofu into the sauce, coating it well (I used barbecue sauce, and it was tasty).
- Place the tofu on the cookie sheet in a single layer (Pieces can be touching, but should not overlap).
- Sprinkle on desired seasoning.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on how crispy you like it.
- Some people like it very chewy, while others prefer it when it's still soft.

- Press the tofu to remove liquid. This is easy to do using a tofu press. If you don't have a tofu press, wrap the drained tofu block in a paper towel, put it between two cutting boards, and apply something heavy on top (like a teapot or a book). Press the tofu for about 20 min and up to an hour.
- Preheat the oven to 400° F (200° C) while the tofu is being pressed. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. If you don't have parchment paper, you can lightly spray the baking sheet with cooking spray (see note*) - this won't add a lot of oil to the finished tofu.
- Drain the pressed tofu and pat it dry. Cut it crosswise into 1/2" thick rectangles, then cut each rectangle in half lengthwise. Cut the resulting tofu strips into 4 equal-sized pieces.
- Arrange the tofu pieces in rows on the prepared baking sheet, making sure that the pieces don't touch. Bake for 10 minutes, then take out and flip. Return to the oven for 6-8 minutes, or until the tofu pieces are slightly golden in color and springy to the touch. Use in any recipe of your choice, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to a week.
