Lemon Herb Tofu

Serves 4

3 ½ tbsp lemon juice, freshly squeezed

2 Tbsp organic tamari

1 tsp pure maple syrup1 tsp dried oregano

½ tsp dried thyme or rosemary

½ tsp dried basil

few pinches freshly ground black pepper

1 350-g pkg (12 oz) extra firm organic tofu, cut into squares about 1/4-1/2 inch thick, and patted to remove excess moisture

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In an 8x12 inch baking dish, combine all ingredients (except tofu), and stir through until will incorporated.
2. Add the tofu and coat each side. Cover and bake for 15 minutes.
3. Turn the tofu over, and continue to bake uncovered for another 10-15 minutes, turning again when there are just a few minutes of cooking time remaining.
4. At this time, the tofu should have soaked up most of the marinade. Remove from oven and let cool a little before serving, or serve hot.
