30 min

Ingredients

  • 1 block Extra-firm Tofu
  • 2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 1 tsp Liquid Smoke
  • 1 tsp Sriracha
  • ½ tsp Garlic Powder
  • 4 whole English Muffin
  • 1 whole Avocado
  • 1 whole Tomatoes
  • 1 tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 2 tbsp Tahini
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • ¼ tsp Turmeric

Instructions

  1. In a shallow dish, whisk together the nutritional yeast, olive oil, soy sauce, liquid smoke, sriracha, and garlic powder. Add the tofu slices and turn to coat evenly. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the remaining components.
  2. Make the drizzle sauce: stir together the tahini, maple syrup, lemon juice, turmeric, and 1 tbsp warm water in a small bowl until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated tofu slices along with any remaining marinade. Cook for 5 minutes per side until deeply golden brown, pressing any sticky marinade back onto the tofu with a spatula.
  4. While the tofu cooks, toast the English muffins until golden. Mash the avocado and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Assemble each sandwich: spread mashed avocado on the bottom half of each English muffin, top with a tofu slice and 1-2 tomato slices, drizzle with the sauce, and close with the top half. Serve immediately with extra sauce on the side.
