Baked Tofu with Black Beans and Ginger Tahini Slaw

Baked Tofu with Black Beans



Ginger Tahini Slaw



This is the kind of stuff people buy from the prepared food section of the Whole Foods, but it's cheaper and better if you make it at home. For the slaw, just mix thinly sliced cabbage and carrots with slivers of ginger, tahini, and a little canola oil. Then add some canned mandarin oranges if you want it a little sweeter. I stole this recipe from an old roommate of mine who would suggest eating this with chop sticks.

The Tofu is best when it's a little crispy on the outside so I suggest making it in the broiler. Just rub it down with spices and olive oil and while it's cooking, sautee the onions, then the black beans and add them to the baking tray for the last minute or so.

enjoy!
