Directions

1. Press your tofu at least one hour in advance by wrapping it in paper towels, leaving on a plate and covered with a skillet or a cutting board weighed down with something heavy.

2. Preheat the oven to 400ºF and prepare your vegetables, tossing them into a large bowl with a healthy drizzle of oil, a generous dash of salt and pepper, and the paprika, nutritional yeast, and oregano.

3. Spread the vegetables out onto a baking tray, place in the oven, and roast for 25-30 minutes or until vegetables are tender and roasted.

4. Cut the tofu into even cubes. Toss in a bowl with a light amount of oil and a hefty splash of soy sauce and nutritional yeast. Place in the oven on another tray and roast for about 20-25 minutes.

5. Meanwhile, combine the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.

6. Prepare your grains.

7. Once the vegetables and tofu are roasted, combine in a bowl with grains and top with the ginger sesame dressing. Serve and enjoy!
