  • Baked Pesto Tofu

    Herb-Infused Baked Tofu with Homemade Basil Pesto

    Ingredients:

    14 oz firm tofu, pressed and cut into 1-inch cubes

    1/2 cup fresh basil leaves

    2 tablespoons pine nuts (or walnuts)

    2 tablespoons nutritional yeast

    1 garlic clove

    1/4 teaspoon sea salt

    2 tablespoons lemon juice

    3 tablespoons olive oil

    Optional: cherry tomatoes or roasted red peppers for garnish

    Directions:

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Press tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture. Cut into cubes.

    In a food processor, combine basil, pine nuts, nutritional yeast, garlic, salt, lemon juice, and olive oil. Blend until smooth to create pesto.

    In a bowl, gently toss tofu cubes with the pesto until fully coated.

    Spread tofu cubes on the baking sheet in a single layer.

    Bake for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and slightly crispy.

    Serve warm with rice, pasta, or a fresh salad. Garnish with cherry tomatoes or roasted red peppers, if desired.
