Ingredients
16 oz block tofu, pressed and drained
1 tsp ground turmeric
1/2 tsp each: salt, black pepper, cumin, and garlic powder
Spray olive oil
1 cup brown rice
1/2 cup full fat coconut milk
1 1/2 cups water
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup minced cilantro
1 TBS lime juice
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 F.
Cut tofu block in half over the top, the short way. Cut each half into 3 slices, down the side.
Mix together turmeric, salt, pepper, cumin, and garlic powder.
Gently coat each piece of tofu with the turmeric mixture. Spray with olive oil and bake on a parchment lined baking sheet for 40 minutes, turning half way.
Meanwhile, combine rice, coconut milk, water, and salt in a rice cooker until the rice has absorbed the moisture.
Let the rice cool 5 minutes. Mix in cilantro and lime juice. Serve with spiced turmeric tofu pieces.
