I use this in place of beef in many dishes. If you buy a lot of packaged, organic tofu, it can be frozen.
Serves 2-4
Preheat the oven to 400F (200C)
1 pound (455 g) organic tofu
3 Tbs. (45 ml) soy sauce or gluten-free liquid aminos
3 Tbs. (45 ml) olive oil
+1 tsp. (+2 g) to taste, each: garlic powder, paprika, and chili powders
2 Tbs. (30 g) nutritional yeast or organic vegetable broth
1. Remove the water from the tofu.
