Baked Tofu and Potatoes

Submitted by Prose

"I used to make this easy baked chicken and potatoes recipe. Last night I decided to veganize it. I winged it and wasn't sure if it would be good at all, but it was delicious! The tofu browned nicely, but was still nice and tender. Note: amounts are approximated."

I was skeptical of this recipe because it seemed so basic but it was actually very flavorful and super easy to make. I omitted the chili powder because I have gastritis but it still tasted great. Would definitely make again.

Very great recipe. I tried it last night. I also added half of a smallish onion chopped a bit bigger. I also doubled most of the spices (I'm pretty good at Eye balling seasoning). I also served it with a little bit of spicy BBQ sauce. It was amazing. I would also suggest baking it for anywhere from 45min to an hour to get it to crisp up a bit more. I was also thinking you could assemble this earlier in the morning or the evening before and let the ingredients mingle and then pop it in the oven when you get home from work. Thanks for this recipe, it is definitely going in my repeat file. So easy.

Very yummy!! I think using fresh herbs in this during the summer will be awesome!! I was very liberal with the seasonings and doubled the recipe. I used my broiler pan (just the bottom, not the rack) to have plenty of room to spread everything around. I pressed the tofu first to get the extra moisture out and it turned out great. I also raised the temp to 375 and sliced the taters really thin!! Thanks so much for sharing!! :O)

This was pretty good, but I made some mistakes along the way. I didn't take enough time to drain the tofu so the tofu was a little watery (next time I'll freeze before, too). I wasn't clear on how to put everything in the dish, so I used a 9x13 and did a thin layer on the bottom and it was fine in 30-40 minutes. I'm not sure I liked the chili powder in this and may use different spices next time.

The flavor was great! I would suggest a shallow baking dish because when I tried with a casserole dish, the potatoes were still uncooked after 30 minutes even with wafer thin slices.
