OOops....better late never......

When using Tofu it should be treated like meat when it comes to cross contamination. Always sanitize cutting board and knife after Tofu has been on it.

Barb-Q Broiled Tofu
Start by opening a 1 pound package of firm or extra-firm tofu and draining off the water. Place the tofu block on a cutting board and slice into slabs the thickness you desire. I usually slice the block into 8 slabs.
Thouroughly coat each slab with your favorite BBQ sauce.
Spray a broiler pan with non-stick spray.
Place tofu on pan and sprinkle a little oregano on top and broil. Be careful no to let burn.
I personally let the tofu cool down in the fridge and eat cold or room temp. {It's a texture thing for me. I don't like hot tofu} Try it by itself or on a sandwich. Hot or cold and you decide.


Tofu Stirfry
Start by opening a 1 pound package of firm or extra-firm tofu and draining off the water. Cut into 1/2 inch cubes.
To make marinade:
Juice of 1 lemon
1/8 c xvoo
1 tsp Tamari or soy sauce
fresh basil leaves
S&P
1 TB honey
Put all ingredients in food processor and blend.

Transfer tofu to a bowl and pour maridnade over, and let sit for a few hrs. in the fridge. When done marinading take out and let sit at room temp for 15 min.
Get your sautee pan hot, and then coat with non-stick pan spray. Carefully add the tofu to pan, and let it brown a bit before stirring. You don't want to stir this too much. The tofu will break up. Continue cooking about 10 min. An then set aside.
You can use either fresh, or a bag of mixed frozen veggies of your choice.
Wichever you choose sautee them up until desired tenderness, and then add the cooked tofu and mix together, and serve hot. Or let cool down and enjoy cold too!

*Note: You can use any favorite marinade for the tofu.


Breaded Tofu Sticks
Start by opening a 1 pound package of firm or extra-firm tofu and draining off the water. Cut into 8 slabs first, then cut each slab into 3/4 inch strips and set aside.
Make an eggwash with 2 eggs, a TB of water, S&P and wisk well.
In a separate bowl pour in bread crumbs.
Dip the tofu in the eggwash, then in the breadcrumbs and coat.
Be careful not to break the tofu sticks. Place on non-stick baking sheet and bake at 350 for 25 min. Let cool in fridge and enjoy!....I like dipping these in a tomato sauce like mozzarella sticks .... or honey mustard.
