Sheet Pan Tofu Made Saucy

An easy dinner for the week ahead

Consider this a PSA: If you ever think that your sheet pan tofu is missing something, that something is probably sauce. It’s a lesson I learn and forget it, but I had a helpful reminder of it in this hands-off meal that I’ve made a few times in the past couple weeks.

Between a block of tofu, a head of broccoli, and a package of mushrooms, dinner nearly makes itself. I experimented with blending tahini into the marinade, where it roasts along with the tofu, but toasted sesame oil has more impact and better roasting properties. Instead, it’s much better spent in the drizzle, adding that missing something-something by making things creamy and adding a zip of brightness from lime.

Serve it on top of any grain you like, or even salad greens, which makes an excellent lunch using up the leftovers. As always, notes below with the recipe!

Quick question: I’ve been mostly sending this out on Fridays/Saturdays, but I’ve been thinking about switching to Sundays/Mondays, as most of the recipes are weekday rather than weekend oriented. Do you have a strong preference?
