Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pkg extra firm tofu it calls for 14 oz. but I used 1 lb. and I drained and squeezed it almost dry between paper towels
  • 1/4-1/2 cup prepared pesto I just used the whole amount from the recipe
  • 8 oz uncooked spaghetti I used gluten free brown rice penne pasta
  • 24 oz jar marinara sauce
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts I didn't add these because the pesto had plenty

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
  2. Prepare shallow baking pan to prevent sticking
  3. Cut tofu into 1 inch cubes and combined with pesto in a bowl until coated
  4. Arrange coated tofu in baking dish and bake 15 minute (i baked it longer to make it extra crispy
  5. Cook pasta until al dente; drain and return to pan
  6. Add marinara sauce to pasta and stir to coat; heat over medium heat until hot
  7. I stirred the tofu into the sauce and pasta but you can serve with tofu on top
  8. Top with pine nuts if you use them and some vegan parmesan cheese. Both are optional
