Lemon Herb Grilled Tofu Vegan Friendly Food

LEMON-HERB GRILLED TOFU - VEGAN FRIENDLY

Steps:

• Drain and slice the tofu into 1/2 inch slices (slightly thicker slices if you plan to make kebabs) and place between paper towels. Place a weight on top and let drain for about an hour.
• Pat the slices dry and cut each slich into 3 or 4 triangles.
• Mix the marinade in a zip-lock bag, add the triangles and refrigerate until needed.
• Grill the tofu triangles until slightly browned. You could also skewer them with cut up vegetables and baste with the marinade.
• These are also very good the next day, served chilled with cooked green beans in the leftover marinade/dressing.

TASTY GRILLED TOFU ON A STICK

Steps:

• Slice the tofu in 3 equal sections lengthwise, and then cut each slice in half to make six tofu sticks.
• Remove excess moisture from each tofu stick by wrapping in a towel or paper towel and squeezing the tofu juice out.
• Using a knife or brush, spread mustard onto each side of each stick.
• Place the sticks in a large enough container to lay them in one layer.
• Let them marinate in the fridge for as little as three hours or as long as overnight.
• After marinating tofu, remove from refrigerator.
• Place seasoned breadcrumbs on a plate, add chili pepper and mix together with a fork.
• Place each tofu stick on a skewer or use a fork to coat each side with the breadcrumb mix.
• Mist each side of each stick with olive oil.
• Cook on the grill until browned and crispy, or cook in the oven at 375 on a greased baking sheet for 10 minutes or until brown and crispy.
