Honey Mustard Tofu Grilled

  • Uniquely flavored with a sweet and tangy honey mustard sauce.
  • Perfect for meal prep or a quick grilled dinner.
  • Completely plant-based and suitable for vegans.

Ingredients

  • 1 block of firm tofu – pressed and drained
  • 3 tablespoons honey – natural sweetener (or agave for vegan)
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard – for tanginess
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil – for grilling
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder – for flavor
  • Salt and pepper – to taste

How to Make

To begin, cut the tofu block into even slices, about 3/4 inch thick. In a bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to create a smooth marinade. Place the tofu slices in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes; you can even do this overnight for more flavor. Once marinated, preheat your grill and cook the tofu slices for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until they’re golden brown and slightly crispy. Serve hot, and enjoy the burst of flavor with a side salad or whole grain!

Tips

  • Press the tofu well to remove excess moisture for better grilling.
  • Feel free to add your favorite herbs for extra flavor.
  • Use a non-stick grill pan if grilling outdoors isn’t an option.

Make-Ahead

This recipe can be prepped in advance! Marinate the tofu a day ahead and store in the fridge. Just grill when you’re ready to eat.

Storing

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently to maintain texture.

Freezing

You can freeze marinated tofu before grilling. Just be sure to drain it well after thawing to retain flavor.

Reheating

Reheat the tofu in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through, or place it back on the grill for a few minutes.

Serving Suggestions

This honey mustard tofu pairs well with quinoa, brown rice, or on a bed of leafy greens. Add other grilled veggies or a light vinaigrette for a complete meal.
