Instructions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375F (190C).

OvenPreheat

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together the nutritional yeast, olive oil, soy sauce and garlic powder. It should become a thick paste, but you can add a bit of water to make it easier to coat the tofu.

Step 3

Rip the tofu into bite-size chunks, and then coat them in the mixture. You can also cube them but I find the ripped texture more satisfying to eat :)

Step 4

Spread the tofu evenly across the baking sheets and bake about 30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until lightly golden. Serve hot or store in an air-tight container in the fridge, or freeze to use later. Great as main, as nuggets, on salads, in sandwiches, in tacos, on pasta, on nachos, the options are endless, use these everywhere!
