Oven Baked Tofu

I will admit, I haven't always been a big fan of tofu. I now realize that I wasn't preparing it properly.
My first experience with tofu (that I actually enjoyed) was at Whole Foods, it was crispy and baked to perfection.
I tried hard to come up with my own version of their tofu, and now with this recipe, the taste and texture is very similar to what I was seeking.
Tofu is quite versatile, you can add many spices or seasonings to create a flavor perfect for whatever else you are pairing it with. Here I share a basic.
This baked tofu can be added to a salad, rice or quinoa bowl... you can even add it to a kabob stick (decrease the bake time by 10 mins), a great substitute for any paneer recipe, or simply add it to a vegetable stir fry.
The possibilities are endless, my dear friend!
