Ingredients
  • 12 oz block extra firm tofu, drained and pressed for at least 30 minutes
  • 4 tbsp bbq sauce, divided
  • 1 tbsp tahini
  • 1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce or GF alternative
  • 1 head broccoli
  • 3 large carrots
  • 12 Brussels sprouts
  • 1 Green pepper
  • ¼ Red onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil, optional
  • 1 c uncooked brown rice, prepared
Instructions
  1. Coat the tofu into ¾ inch cubes.
  2. Whisk 2 tbsp bbq sauce, tahini, soy sauce, and ⅓ c water. Toss the tofu in the marinade and let sit for 30 minutes, occasionally tossing the tofu in the sauce.
  3. Meanwhile, roughly chop your veggies. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  4. Spread all veggies except the onion and garlic across a baking sheet. Sprinkle the onion and garlic over the other veggies. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, if desired.
  5. On a separate baking sheet, arrange the tofu cubes. If you have any extra marinade, drizzle over the veggies. If not, drizzle a little EVOO on the veggies.
  6. Roast in the oven for 40 minutes. Halfway through baking, turn the tofu cubes. You might notice some of the marinade burning, but it easily separates from the tofu if that happens.
  7. Stir 2 tbsp of bbq sauce into brown rice. Serve veggies and tofu over rice, tossing together if desired.
Notes
Nutritional estimate is using Light Extra Firm tofu and 1 tsp EVOO. Regular tofu adds ~20 calories.
