This was the best tofu dinner EVER! Both me and my husband are always skeptical about making tofu because it never comes out the way we want. UNTIL THIS!! I can’t wait to make this again but also to just cook todu this way and add it to other dishes. So grateful for these recipes! Now time to pick the next one!
Love that this recipe potentially changed your relationship with tofu!! It really is an amazing ingredient when you figure out how you like it. Can’t wait to see what you try next!
This is a fantastic recipe! The tofu came out so crispy and flavorful. It was very easy and quick to put together and I love that all of the seasoning stuck to the tofu with just the use of coconut aminos, no oil. I had to control myself from eating all of the tofu off of the sheet before dinner! This was a new and refreshing flavor profile on tofu for me and I love it. My partner said the same… he couldn’t get enough! This will definitely be on the regular recipe rotation list in our home. Thanks so much!
Thank you Christina! I feel like I couldn’t have had a better response to this recipe! I love truly love the crispiness of this tofu and I’m really glad that you had a positive and enjoyable experience! No oil for the win! Who knew 🙂
