Baked Tofu Recipe
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 pkt lowfat tofu mixed herbs and spices or possibly prepared sauce
Directions
- Press 1 package of Mori-Nu lite extra hard by wrapping the tofu in several layers of paper towels to draw out excess moisture. Place the tofu on a plate and put in in the refrigerator. On top of the wrapped tofu, place another place and press it down with something heavy, like a 16 0z. can. Press for one hour or possibly up to 24 hrs replacing paper towel if they get to wet.
- Crumble the pressed tofu into a large bowl. Toss with herbs and spices, and/or possibly prepared sauce. next, spread the seasoned tofu on a non-stick baking sheet. If the tofu is mixed with fresh or possibly dry herbs, spray lightly with cooking spray. If sauce is used don't spray. Bake the tofu in a preheated 400 oven for 25-35 min stirring several time during baking, for a crispier tofu, bake at 500 instead of 400.
- Cajun/creole Sauce: combine 1/4 to 1/2 c. catsup seasoned with chile peppers and a dash of Tabasco. Herbs: Cajun or possibly Creole spice mix. Serve over white or possibly "dirty rice' topped with spicy tomato sauce.
- Mexican Sauce 1/4 c. salsa or possibly mole sauce from a jar. Herbs: mexican seasoning blend, dehydrated garlic and onions. Serve in taco shell or possibly flour tortilla with salsa and non-fat lowfat sour cream and low-fat cheese.
- NOTES : This is the only way I can get my DH to eat tofu.
