Swiss-Style Vegetable Skewers with Tofu

Ingredients

• 1 14-oz block Extra-Firm Tofu
• 2 tbsp Olive Oil
• 2 tbsp Lemon Juice
• 1 tsp Dried Thyme
• 1 tsp Dried Rosemary
• 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
• 1/4 tsp Salt
• 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
• 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
• 1 large Bell Peppers (various colors)
• 1/2 medium Red Onion
• 1 medium Zucchini

Instructions

1. 1Place the 1 14-oz block Extra-Firm Tofu on a clean surface and press it firmly to remove as much water as possible. Cut the pressed tofu into 1-inch cubes.
2. 2In a medium bowl, whisk together the 2 tablespoons Olive Oil, 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice, 1 teaspoon Dried Thyme, 1 teaspoon Dried Rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder, 1/4 teaspoon Salt, and 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper until well combined.
3. 3Add the 1-inch tofu cubes to the marinade in the bowl and gently toss them to ensure each piece is evenly coated. Let the tofu marinate for at least 15 minutes.
4. 4Prepare the vegetables by cutting the 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes in half if they are large, and cutting the 1 large Bell Peppers, 1/2 medium Red Onion, and 1 medium Zucchini into 1-inch pieces.
5. 5Carefully thread the marinated tofu cubes, cherry tomatoes, bell pepper pieces, red onion pieces, and zucchini pieces onto skewers, alternating the ingredients.
6. 6Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium heat, which is approximately 350°F to 400°F (175°C to 200°C).
7. 7Place the assembled skewers on the preheated grill or grill pan. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, turning the skewers occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred, and the tofu is golden brown and firm to the touch.
8. 8Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 1 minute before serving warm.
