Tofu Caprese If you're skeptical about Tofu because you think it's a food for dieters, vegetarians and organic-eaters you should reconsider. For many years I thought this too, until one day I tried Tofu… and fell in love with it. Tofu will be acting as mozzarella in this Caprese. You'll want cold fresh tofu, preferably, not something you already opened so that it will be soft, bland, and watery like real mozzarella cheese.
Instructions to make Tofu Caprese:
- Remove water from tofu as much as possible and slice when ready. (You can wrap tofu with kitchen papers and let it sit for an hour. Add weight if necessary.)
- Slice tomato.
- Place sliced tofu and tomato alternately on a plate.
- Spray olive oil over and add salt & pepper.
- Break basil leaves with fingers and sprinkle over.
- FYI - I used this extra firm tofu from Trader’s Joe.
- FYI - olive oil spray is just for convenience. Of course regular olive oil is as good!
