Glazed Tofu Bars
1 pound firm tofu
2 Tbs lower-sodium soy sauce
2 Tbs cider vinegar
Pepper (to taste)
1/4 cup tomato paste or leftover spaghetti sauce
1/2 cup water
1 tsp prepared mustard
Preheat the oven to 400°.
Cut tofu into 12 bars about 1/4" thick, or cut into bite-sized cubes. Place in shallow baking dish.
Mix remaining ingredients together well. Pour over tofu bars or cubes and coat well.
Bake at 400° for about 45 minutes, turning bars over or stirring cubes every 15 minutes, until tofu is glazed. Serve as a main dish. Leftovers are good cold in a sandwich.
Note: You may also serve the cubes with toothpicks as an appetizer, or add them to stirfried vegetables.
