Summery Tofu Marinades – 3 different ways!
NO MORE bland tofu with these 3 delicious Summer inspired tofu marinades. They're all SO SIMPLE to make and great for meal prep if you want to marinate it in the fridge for a few days until you're ready to enjoy!

Ingredients
For the Cilantro Lime Flavor:
For the Nashville Hot Tofu:
For the Lemon Pepper Tofu:
Instructions
- Step 1
If using extra-firm tofu, make sure you press it first.
- Step 2
Cut or tear the tofu into bite sized chunks. I like to tear my tofu because it provides lots of rough edges that get crispy when you cook it.
- Step 3
Combine all of the marinade ingredients for your selected flavor into a sealable container (bags or Tupperware both work well). Add in the tofu and toss to combine.
- Step 4
Let marinate for at least 30 minutes but longer is better. Cook according to desired preferences. I love to air fry my tofu but you can also pan fry it, grill it or bake it! ENJOY!
Notes
- Step 5
Super firm tofu does not need to be pressed.
