A delicious and healthy recipe for Balsamic Glazed Tofu with Roasted Vegetables, perfect for a nutritious meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 block (14 oz) firm tofu, drained and pressed
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups mixed vegetables (bell peppers, zucchini, and broccoli), chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for roasting)
- Cooked rice or quinoa, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cut the pressed tofu into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, maple syrup, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.
- Pour the marinade over the tofu cubes and gently toss to coat. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- While the tofu is marinating, prepare the vegetables. In another bowl, toss the chopped mixed vegetables with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the marinated tofu and the seasoned vegetables on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the tofu is golden and the vegetables are tender.
- Serve the balsamic glazed tofu over cooked rice or quinoa, drizzling any remaining marinade from the baking sheet over the top.
Notes
- For added flavor, sprinkle sesame seeds or chopped green onions on top before serving.
- Substitute the mixed vegetables with your favorites, such as carrots, asparagus, or sweet potatoes, to customize the dish.
