VEGETABLE TOFU KEBOBS

Serves 8

 

12 oz. firm tofu, pressed and weighted, cut into cubes

2 tbsp. red wine vinegar

2 tbsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce

2 cloves garlic

2 tbsp. olive oil

fresh ground pepper to taste

1 medium red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 8 squares

8 small button mushrooms

1 small yellow squash, cut into 8 slices

8 sweet onions, cutting into 8 wedges

 

  • Place the tofu in a shallow dish.  In a cup, whisk together 2 tbsp vinegar, 2 tbsp. soy sauce, 2 cloves of garlic, 2 tbsp. olive oil and pepper.  Pour over the tofu and marinate for at least 1 hour, turning to coat each side.
  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Transfer the tofu to a pepper towel to drain.  Thread the tofu and vegetables onto 8 skewers and lightly brush the vegetables with the marinade.  Broil, turning the kebabs, until the vegetables are done, about 2 to 3 minutes per side, turn 4 times.
