Baked Ginger Garlic Tofu (WFPBNO)

This tofu recipe is so easy and delicious. I made it last night and added it to a Sushi Bowl, be sure to check back next week for that recipe. It would also be good in any stir-fry or salad. The flavor is not overpowering. I used a super firm tofu but I think a firm or extra-firm would work better. Just be sure to press it to get all the liquid out of it and then marinate it. The longer the better. You can also gently press down on the tofu as it marinate using a storage container and the tofu will act like a sponge and soak up a little extra marinade. Honestly as soon as this came out of the oven and was cool enough to not burn my mouth I snacked on a few pieces. 

• 1 16-ounce package tofu, firm or extra firm, organic
• 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 inch ginger, sliced thin
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar

Put all ingredients except for the tofu in a blender and blend until fairly smooth. Set aside. Cube tofu into bit sized pieces and add to a container to marinate. 

Pour marinade over the tofu and toss until each piece is coated.

Preheat oven to 400F. Cover sheet pan with parchment paper. Add tofu to pan.

Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and add more marinade to the top of each piece.

Return to oven and bake another 10-12 minutes. 

Serve however  you wish.
