Ingredients:

DSC08444

  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/8 cup Parmesan cheese (nutritional yeast if vegan)
  • 1 block of extra firm tofu
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • canola oil spray
  • salt and pepper
  • 1/2 tsp paprika, I did not add this, since my son enjoys eating these tenders too.

Preparation :

  • Cut the tofu in strips, I got about 16 strips from one block.
  • Mix the flour, parmesan, oregano, garlic powder and salt and pepper for the breading.
  • Do not press the tofu too much, since the moisture will allow the breading mixture to stick to the tofu. No egg needed.
  • Roll the tofu in the breading mixture and line them on a baking sheet.
  • Bake at 375 F for about 20 minutes and then turn to the other side and let go for another 10 minutes.

I served mine with ketchup and Neil enjoyed it just like that.Its fun to see him enjoy foods that we eat!!!

I tossed diced tofu tenders in my salad the next day and they were such a fun addition to the greens.

Happy mother’s day!

by Priyanka on May 11, 2013

Last year, I had the wonderful chance to celebrate Mother’s day with my mum after 6 years. This time a distance of thousand miles will prevent that. But because of my son, mothers’ day is going to be extra special this year! My first mothers’ day as a mum, thank you Neil!
