Easy Oven Baked Tofu Sticks

[Guest guest]

The cookbook author considers this an appetizer, but when I make something

similar I serve it with rice and veggies rather than as dippers.

Drain two blocks of tofu and wrap in paper towels for 15 minutes.

 

In shallow bowl, mix together cracker crumbs, cornmeal, seasoning, chili

powder and salt. Set aside. Lightly oil large wire cake or cookie cooling

rack. Remove paper towels from tofu; cut each block into 12 sticks about 3

inches long and 3/4 inch thick. Dredge each stick in crumb mixture; place

on wire rack. Place rack in 375 degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until

crisp and brown. Serve warm drizzled with sauce or with sauce on the side

for dipping. Makes 6 servings of 4 sticks each.

 

Comment: use sauce of your choice, goes well with fat-free red sauces or

fat-free ranch salad dressing.

 

For a real time saver, you can purchase potato shake mixes and Use in place

of the cracker crumbs, cornmeal and seasonings.
