Baked Tofu

If you are a vegetarian or just don't eat much meat, you probably have visited the world of tofu many times before. Tofu, while a great source of protien, is totally bland and can have a funny texture. This recipe is a tasty alternative. It keeps well in the refigerator and makes a great on the go snack. Kids love them too!

Ingredience:
Tofu (Silken is the only Tofu that does not need refrigeration)
Soy Sauce or Bar-B-Q sauce
1.  Simply take the block of Tofu and cut it in half short ways. Then cut it into slices about a half inch thick, then cut the slices into strips about 3/4 a inch wide.


2. Take your tofu sticks and place them in a medium sized flat bottom dish. (A pie pan works great.) You don't want it so big that there is wasted space nor so small they you have to stack the tofu.

3. Cover the tofu with sauce.

4. Let the tofu soak for 4-8 hours, flipping the sticks every hour or two.

5. Lay sticks onto a baking tray.

6. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.

7. Flip the sticks over with a spatula and bake for another 10-15 minutes.

8. Remove, cool, and enjoy!
