Cheesy, Sesame, Garlic Crusted Tofu

I really wanted to make tofu covered in breadcrumbs that were super crisp (because I use to eat chicken like this). But doing that is quite unhealthy, sit equires a lot of oil and bread. So I decided to use healthy ingredients and no oil! This is what I came up with. This is so delicious and definitely a go to of mine now. I also am obsessed with this tahini dijon dressing which I included in the recipe below! Enjoy

Recipe -

Ingredients :

1/4 - 1/2 sesame seeds

2 Tbsp Italian herb mix

3 Tbsp nutritional yeast

3 Tbsp garlic powder ( I love mine garlicky, but feel free to add less)

225g firm tofu ( this will serve two people)

Method : 

Cube the tofu evenly and tofu in all of the ingredients. 

Place on a baking sheet and cook in preheated oven 200degrees Celsius for about 15-20mins or until the sesame seeds are toasted and golden. 

Make sure all the tofu is coated evenly.

                           

So crisp
