Step 1

Remove tofu from packaging and pat dry. Slice into thin strips.

Step 2

Make the marinade by combining everything in a bowl. Add the tofu strips to the bowl and toss to coat them in the marinade. Don't worry if you break up the slices!

Step 3

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper / cooking spray and spread out the tofu pieces in a single layer. Bake at 350 F for 20 - 30 minutes, or until the tofu is slightly dried out and chewy.

Step 4

While the tofu is baking, grill up the diced onion in some oil and vegan butter. Once tofu is baked, add it to the pan with the grilled onion.

Step 5

Add 1 cup of liquid (either water, broth, or a mixture, depending on how salty you want the meat) and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and then simmer until the liquid is mostly reduced. About 10 - 15 minutes. Taste and adjust for seasoning.

Step 6

Your meat is done! Enjoy as you wish!

Step 7

Soak the raw cashews in boiling water for 15 minutes.

Step 8

Blend the drained cashews with the unsweetened plant milk in a high speed blender until smooth.

Step 9

Add everything but the cheese shreds to a saucepan, whisk to combine and bring to a light boil. Add cheese shreds and whisk until melted. Taste and adjust for seasoning, or add more plant milk if the sauce is too thick.

Step 10

ENJOY!
