Awesome Baked Tofu

While I was stumbling about on the internet last night, I found a recipe for Baked Tofu (you can find the original recipe here). I didn't have all the ingredients that they called for, so I improvised--with success! Even Tom liked it, and that's weird--he doesn't like Tofu (or so he claims). Anyway, below is the recipe that I used. Enjoy!

Stacie's Awesome Baked Tofu

1 pound firm tofu
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup vegetable broth

1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon onion granules
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon sage
1/4 teaspoon rosemary
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon parsley
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Salt and pepper to taste

(or use whatever spices you've got on hand!)

Cut the tofu into 1/4″ slices and wrap in paper towels. Place a weight on top for about an hour.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

In a shallow bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and the 11 herbs and spices and mix well. Dip the tofu slices in the veggie broth and then in the breadcrumbs mixture, coat well on both sides, place the coated pieces on a oiled baking pan.

Bake for 12-15 minutes on each side.


Serve with a dipping sauce like soy sauce, or just use ketchup. :) Mmmmm. For sides I served corn on the cob and cucumbers with oil and vinegar.
