Marinated Tofu Recipes

Good to keep in the fridge as a quick salad topping and the brine acts as a no-fat salad dressing!

Use more chili powder if you like extra spicy-ness!

Used instead of unmarinated tofu in any recipe.

Marinated Tofu

Tofu marinated and baked in a tangy, spicy sauce that is great with any vegetable side dish and rice or other grains. Especially good (and energy efficient) with roasted veggies, which can cook along side the tofu.

A good recipe for those of you scared of tofu! This is delicious, nutritious, and flavorful.

A substantial salad with a mix of textures and tastes. A meal in itself.

I just threw this together one day when I didn't have anything left in my refrigerator but some tofu and Italian dressing. I liked it, and I hope you do too.

This is a delicious low fat, high protein dinner - very flavorful!

This is a delicious tofu main dish. My meat-loving husband prefers this over meat!

A wonderful introduction into eating tofu for even the most avid meat eater.

To make this I use Hodgson Mill's 'Bulgar Wheat and Soy'. It is a really great low calorie whole grain with extra protein from the soy, and although it is marketed as a breakfast grain (you may find it in your health food section's cereal aisle), you can use it for a lot of things. If you can't find it, you could substitute regular bulgar wheat or even kashi 7 grain cereal.

Wonderful flavor! Easy to make.

These as great as a snack, in a salad, or in stir fry.

Great stir-fry, easily modified and/or doubled

At 154 calories and 12.8 grams of protein per serving, this is a super healthy treat that is totally tantalizing.

The only problem with this stuff is that, once its aroma fills the kitchen, you'll have trouble NOT eating the whole batch!

If you are watching sodium, cut way back on the soy sauce.

This is a simple marinade that balances sweet and salty and adds a lot of flavor to the tofu. You can bake or brown in a skillet.

This tastes best when it marinates for a long time!

This recipe is from the 7 Secrets Cookbook. You can bake it and eliminate the oil. If so, bake on a cookie sheet at 400 degrees F until golden brown and puffy.
