BBQ Tofu

As we are getting ready for Memorial Day, it is tough being a vegetarian when the holiday focuses on eating grilled meat. Or is it really that tough?

Today I’m bringing you a quick and easy recipe for Barbecue Tofu. You can enjoy the tastes of barbecue while staying plant based. Win-Win.

Pressed, firm tofu – Since I’m new to cooking tofu, here is the method of how to press tofu.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil or Avocado Oil
Salt and Pepper
Garlic Salt or Powder, Trader Joe’s Seasoning Salt, or Penzey’s Galena Street Rub
Your Favorite BBQ sauce

Pressed, firm tofu
1 Tbsp. Extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Garlic Salt or Powder, Trader Joe’s Seasoning Salt, or Penzey’s Galena Street Rub, to taste
¼ c. bbq sauce

In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat.
In the meantime, cut the tofu into 32 rectangles.
Gently add the tofu to the skillet. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and other spice blend.
Allow the tofu to cook for 5 minutes. Flip.
Sprinkle the other side with the spices. Cook for additional 3 to 5 minutes.
Remove from the skillet. Place in a bowl. Pour the bbq sauce over the tofu. Stir until all the tofu is covered with sauce.
Enjoy!

My favorite BBQ sauce is Carolina Gold. Yum!
