Amazing and Easy Tofu Sandwich Recipe

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 F/ 205 C

Step 2

Carefully slice the tofu into ¼ inch thick slices making 8 squares. You are slicing it length wise to make squares not height wise to make little rectangles. See the photos in the post. Place them on a plate or wide container.

Step 3

Mixthe Tamari, maple, lime juice, garlic powder, liquid smoke, pepper and hot sauce in a bowl and whisk well.

Step 4

Coat the tofu slices with the mixture on both sides. You can let them marinate for a few minutes as you clean up and/or prep the ingredients you will serve with, but it isn’t necessary. You can even marinate overnight for a really deep flavor.

Step 5

Lay them out on a parchment lined baking sheet.

Step 6

Bake for 15 minutes. Flip and bake another 5-7 minutes, depending on how crispy you want them. Be careful not to burn the tofu slices.

Step 7

Allow to cool as you assemble your toppings. Build the sandwiches by spreading the sauce on the slices of bread. Then add lettuce, tomato, tofu slices (I to 2 per sandwich), avocado, cucumber and sprouts. You can do any order you prefer, but I like the tofu nestled in the middle of everything.

Step 8

Serve and enjoy!
