Baked Spicy Tofu

Slow baking tofu in a sweet-and-spicy salsa-based sauce produces a deliciously caramelized flavor reminiscent of barbeque. You can serve the tofu cutlets warm out of the oven (they're perfect with rice and beans), or cool them and try them in wraps or on top of your favorite salad.
