Instructions
- Make the marinade by mixing all the ingredients in a bowl and set aside. Press and cube the tofu if you haven’t already
- Add your pressed and cubed tofu to the marinade and toss well. Let it sit for 5 minutes. Mix the crispy coating ingredients in a shallow bowl
- Then carefully transfer the marinated tofu to the shallow bowl leaving the excess marinade in the original bowl.
- Toss the tofu in the coating to coat all of the tofu. Then transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- In another bowl, add the sweet potatoes, 1/4 tsp salt, black pepper to taste, thyme, and 1 teaspoon oil and mix well.
- Toss well to coat and spread the sweet potato cubes on the same baking sheet.
- Bake at 400 degrees F (200 c ) for 25-30 minutes or until the tofu is crisp and the sweet potato is cooked to preference.
- Make the dressing by combining all the ingredients in a small bowl. (I also like to add a couple of blueberries to this dressing and smash them just for color and a different flavor. This is optional) . You can also mix 1-2 teaspoons of the marinade if remaining
- Assemble your bowl by adding spinach or other greens of choice. Some blueberries, apples, a good helping of the baked tofu and the sweet potato. Drizzle with the dressing and serve.
Notes
- Store: store the tofu, sweet potatoes separately, store the chopped fruits and greens separately in the fridge for upto 3 days. Combine together and with dressing when ready to serve.
- To make this gluten-free use corn starch instead of flour in the tofu marinade
- omit the nuts to make Nutfree
- You can use blackberries instead of blueberries - any berry really
- The spice mix for the tofu can be swapped for Cajun or bbq seasoning if you have some premixed
