Lfla's Note:

Adapted from How It All Vegan!

• Total Time: 1 hrs 10 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 1 hrs

Ingredients:

Serves: 4-5

Yield: 10.0 slices

• 1 ½ cups boiling water
• 1 ½ teaspoons dried dill
• ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
• ½ teaspoon dried thyme
• ½ teaspoon salt (scant)
• ½ teaspoon dried marjoram
• ½ teaspoon dried sage
• ½ teaspoon pepper
• 1 -4 garlic clove , thinly sliced
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 lb firm tofu

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. In a large bowl, prepare the marinade by whisking together all the ingredients except the tofu. Set aside.
3. Slice the tofu into desired shapes, about 1/4 inch thick (a pound of tofu will give you about 10 slices).
4. Lay each slice on a cookie sheet or a lasagna pan, cover with marinade, and let sit in the refrigerate for at least an hour -- the longer, the better. Turn the slices over a few times as they marinate.
5. Bake for 1 hour, turning slices over after 30 minutes.
6. To serve, fry cutlets on a nonstick frying pan until both sides are browned.

This was really good and a great addition to your Thanksgiving feast! especially good with Vegetarian gravy and cranberry sauce - yum!

it was rubbery, didn't have much flavor, and not what i was expecting - maybe i didn't marinate long enough???

Didn't quite work for me. A little tough and dry. I will try again and see if my taste buds are pursuaded to change the rating. thanks for the thought and direction.
