An exciting meal prep staple featuring a vegan tofu bacon recipe. This recipe focuses on creating flavorful 'bacon' using a marinade and then suggests assembling it into a sandwich for easy freezer storage.
1. Combine all marinade ingredients (avocado oil, low sodium soy sauce/aminos/vegan Worcestershire, maple syrup, liquid smoke, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, chili powder, red chili flakes, salt and pepper) and set aside.
2. Slice extra firm or hard tofu in half, pat dry with a towel, and then break it down into the marinade.
3. Lay the marinated tofu on a baking sheet, spreading it evenly.
4. Cook the tofu bacon at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 25-27 minutes, checking periodically.
5. To assemble your sandwich, add your favorite sauce (like Bitchin' sauce) on some Chabata bread, layer with your prepared tofu bacon and cheese, then wrap and store in the freezer until ready to indulge.
