Marry Me Tofu

A simple yet irresistible dish featuring crispy, golden tofu in a creamy sun-dried tomato sauce infused with garlic and Italian herbs, perfect for busy weeknight dinners.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz firm tofu, drained and pressed
  • 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 cup coconut cream or vegan cream cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 package gnocchi
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  3. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and Italian seasoning, stirring for another minute.
  4. Pour in the coconut cream or vegan cream cheese, mixing until warm and creamy.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting as needed.
  6. Cube the tofu and gently fold it into the sauce until well coated.
  7. Prepare the gnocchi according to package instructions, then drain.
  8. Toss the gnocchi with the tofu and sauce mixture, ensuring everything is well blended.

Notes

Press the tofu thoroughly to remove excess moisture for the best texture. Use full-fat coconut cream for a richer sauce. Chop your sun-dried tomatoes into small pieces for even flavor distribution.
