    Title: Gluten-Free Tofu Parmesan
    Categories: Pasta, Herbs, Cheese
    Yield: 4 Servings

    12 oz Gluten free pasta
    14 oz Firm or extra-firm tofu; cut
    - in long thin slices
    1/4 c Melted coconut oil
    1/2 c Quinoa flour
    1/2 ts Garlic powder
    1 tb Italian seasoning
    1 ts Himalayan salt
    1 c Fresh grated Parmesan
    Fresh basil; garnish

    First, cut the tofu in half and place between two dish
    towels or paper-towels to remove any excess moisture
    from the tofu. Press the tofu for at least 5 minths and
    then cut each half into long slices. During this time,
    cook the pasta according to instructions and make the
    quinoa flour.

    To make the quinoa flour add ½ cup quinoa to a blender
    and blend until it is a fine powder (some chunks are
    okay). Then, season the quinoa flour with the Italian
    seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside.

    Set the oven @ 400ºF/205ºC and line a baking sheet with
    parchment paper. Take each tofu slice, dip it in the
    melted coconut oil to lightly coat, making sure to let
    any excess coconut oil drip off back into the bowl.
    Then, dip the tofu into the quinoa flour mix to evenly
    coat. Add each tofu slice to the baking sheet making
    sure to leave space between each slice.

    Bake for the tofu for 15-20 minutes on one side. Then,
    remove the pan, flip the tofu, and bake for an
    additional 10-15 minutes until browned. The tofu will be
    slightly soft right out of the oven, so let cool on the
    baking sheet 5 minutes before serving.

    To finish, add desired amount of pasta to your plate,
    top with garlic roasted tomatoes, 2-3 slices of tofu,
    parmesan, and fresh basil.

    Enjoy!

    NOTES: Tofu parmesan can be stored in the fridge for 3-4
    days in a closed container. Best enjoyed day of making!
