BBQ Baked Tofu

 

As soon as the weather gets even remotely warm in Ohio, everybody puts on shorts and flip flops and fires up the grill. As the smell of barbeque wafted down the street, I found myself thinking about making some barbeque tofu. While grilling tofu is not advised, you can most certainly bake it. This recipe is quick, easy, and is great by itself or in a sandwich.

What you need:

One block of extra firm tofu, pressed and drained

¾ Barbeque sauce. KC Masterpiece is fabulous but whatever trips your trigger is fine.

½ small onion, sliced

1 tsp salt

½ tsp pepper

1 tbs olive oil

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees (f). Slice tofu into whatever shape is most convenient to your needs. The foodiecall kitchen cut the tofu into neat little squares, most conducive to sandwich making.

 

Line a Pyrex pan with foil (trust me you want to do this. Saves tons of time in clean up). Lightly oil the bottom with 1 tbs olive oil.

 

Place tofu in pan and pour sauce over the top. Toss the tofu a few times to coat evenly.  Lay sliced onions on top and sprinkle salt and pepper on top.

Bake uncovered for 45 minutes or until done.
