Easy Baked Tofu

This recipe can be a life-saver when you don't feel much like cooking. It's simple to pull together with very little effort and gives everything it's added to a boost of flavor and protein. It's ideal to add to one-bowl dishes, such as the Bliss Bowls in Low-FODMAP and Vegan, and makes a great sandwich filling too.

Easy Low-FODMAP Baked Tofu
Makes 4 servings

​INGREDIENTS

• 16 ounces superfirm tofu or extra-firm tofu, pressed
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon garlic-infused olive oil
  
• 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium tamari
  
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet or baking pan with parchment paper.
2. Cut the tofu into the desired shapes: cubes, strips, triangles, or slices/slabs.
3. Put the sesame oil, garlic-infused oil, tamari, and vinegar in a large bowl and stir to combine. Add the tofu, toss gently (using your hands, if necessary, to prevent the tofu from breaking) until all pieces are evenly coated. Let marinate for 20 to 30 minutes, tossing occasionally, until most of the liquid has been absorbed.
4. Arrange the tofu in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown, turning over cubes, strips, or triangles every 10 minutes or turning over slices/slabs after 15 minutes.
