Tofu Sheet Pan Meal
Description
This recipe combines extra-firm tofu marinated in liquid aminos, maple syrup, and garlic powder with roasted butternut squash, chickpeas, and red onion on a single sheet pan. Roasting at 375°F allows the tofu to brown and become golden while the chickpeas develop a crisp texture. The butternut squash softens and caramelizes slightly, providing a sweet and tender contrast. The use of olive or avocado oil, salt, and pepper seasons the vegetables and tofu uniformly.
Served warm, this meal can be topped with a drizzle of tahini sauce and garnished with chopped cilantro, contributing creamy and fresh herbal accents. It makes for a nutritious vegetarian entree requiring minimal cleanup due to single-pan cooking.
