Vegan Crockpot Tofu with barbecue sauce recipe

Yes, you can cook tofu in the diner or on the slow cooker! Here’s one way to make a tofu-filled slow cooker tofu dish in a gooey sweet homemade grill pan.

Like most slow cooker recipes, this vegetarian barbecue tofu recipe is very simple. Whip up a crock pot in the morning and dinner when you get home at night! When you have two extra minutes, chop the onion and add it in there.

To serve, you can use a loaf of bread using sloppy-joe-like hoagie sandwiches. If you prefer, try toasted French bread or even plain hamburger buns with lettuce, cheese and pickle marinade. Or pair it with rice or whole grains and a veggie side dish full of flour. Keep it for lunch by pairing it with vegan macaroni and cheese and golden Vegetable Recipes, or for the perfect full-time meal, pair this light recipe with golden Vegetable Recipes and rice.

What you need

. 2 containers, firm, or extra firm tofu, pressed and chopped to bite-size or 1-inch chunks 1 1/2 cups ketchup 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari 3 tablespoons brown sugar 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes (use a little less if you’re cooking the kids) 1/2 tsp garlic powder salt and pepper to taste<<

How to make it

First, prepare your tofu. Like most vegan tofu recipes, this works best if you press the tofu first. Why? Tofu is like a sponge – the more water you squeeze out of it, the more of the delicious barbecue sauce flavor will marinate so it can soak it up! Not sure how to press tofu? Check out this simple step-by-step guide: how to press tofu. Once your tofu is well-pressed, chop it up into chunks and combine your tofu with the rest of the ingredients in a bag or slow cooker. Cover and cook for a little 5-6 hours.
