Great effort Leigh! The coconut crusted tofu on cabbage with sweet chili sauce sounds like a delicious and creative way to incorporate a good amount of both protein and fiber. Thanks for the update!

Instructions

  • 1.

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  • 2.

    In a bowl, mix the cornstarch, soy sauce, and lime juice. Add the cubed tofu and toss to coat evenly.

  • 3.

    In a separate bowl, combine the shredded coconut and breadcrumbs. Dip each tofu cube into the coconut mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

  • 4.

    Place the coated tofu on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

  • 5.

    While the tofu is baking, prepare the cabbage and carrot slaw by mixing the green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  • 6.

    Once the tofu is done, assemble the bowls by placing a generous portion of the slaw at the bottom, topping it with the coconut crusted tofu, and drizzling with sweet chili sauce.
