Marinated Tofu

  • 14 Ounces Firm or Extra Firm Tofu
  • 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 2 tablespoon Tamari Or Reduced-Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning

Tahini Herb Sauce

  • ¼ Cup Tahini

Bowl

  • 4 Cups Brown Rice Cooked
  • 1 Avocado Sliced
  • 4 Cups Broccoli Steamed

Instructions
 

  • Press tofu for 15 minutes to release excess water. I wrap mine in a towel and then place a weighted object on top.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F
  • While tofu is pressing, prepare marinade by mixing all other ingredients together in a shallow dish
  • Slice tofu into 9 -12 rectangles and transfer to dish with marinade. Let sit for at least 15 minutes
  • Arrange tofu rectangles on a greased baking sheet and transfer to over. Cook for 40 minutes, flipping halfway through. If you have leftover marinade, brush tofu pieces quickly when flipping
  • While tofu is baking, make tahini herb sauce by combining all ingredients in a small blender and blending until creamy
  • Assemble bowls starting with a base of brown rice. Add baked tofu, steamed broccoli, sliced avocado, nuts, and seeds. Serve with a side of tahini herb sauce!
