Handful of greensI used arugula
Instructions
Prep your tofu: Follow my instructions HERE for pressing tofu and cut it into thin pieces.
Make the marinade: I like to whisk together my marinade directly in the dish/bag where I plan to marinate the tofu. A plastic baggie, stasher bag, or really any kind of shallow resealable container works well. Add all of the tofu marinade ingredients (minus the tofu) and whisk until fully combined.
Add in your tofu pieces and let marinate for 30 minutes or even overnight.
When you’re ready to bake the tofu, preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray a large baking tray with cooking spray. Remove the tofu from the marinade and line it all up on the baking tray. Bake for 18-25 minutes, flipping halfway, or until browned on both sides all around the edges. The bake time will depend largely on the thickness of your tofu slices.
When you’re ready to assemble the sandwiches, divide the tofu, garlic aioli, and greens evenly among the 2 ciabatta rolls. Serve and ENJOY!
Notes
You could also make 4 sandwiches instead of 2 (I’d add a little extra aioli and greens to the recipe), but I think this amount of tofu is perfect for 2 hefty sandwiches.
