Grilled Tofu Sandwiches
Prep time
Total time
Author: The Seasonal Diet
Serves: 6
Ingredients
For The Tofu
- 1 4oz package extra firm sprouted tofu
- 3 Tbsp. tamari or Bragg’s liquid aminos (gf soy sauce)
- 1 Tbsp. tandoori seasoning blend
- 1 Tbsp. coconut oil
- 1 tsp. honey (or another liquid sweetener)
For The Sandwiches
- 6 gluten-free buns (we used Food For Life english muffins)
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 6 leafs of lettuce
- ¼ of an onion, sliced
- 2 carrots, grated
- 4 radishes, grated
- mustard
- honey
Instructions
- Start off by marinating the tofu for at least 30 minutes. Simply drain the tofu, cut in half and squeeze the water out of the tofu gently. You can use a press or a paper towel. Next, slice the tofu into 6 thin squares and set aside. Then in a bowl mix together the remaining tofu ingredients. Dip each piece of tofu into the mixture and place the tofu in a shallow dish, pour remaining mixture over tofu and place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Next, heat up your grill and place a piece of lightly oiled foil on the grill (or use grill pan), place tofu on top of the foil and cook for 7 minutes on each side. If you have room on your grill, place English muffins on the grill for the last 2 minutes and let them get a little crispy.
- Once tofu is cooked and muffins are heated, it’s time to assemble your sandwiches. Add some mustard and honey to the buns and then layer tofu and vegetables. Eat right away.

Hi there!
On your Tofu recipe, what can I substitute for the oil or do I just omit it? Also where can I obtain the tandoori seasoning or what are the spices in it? What other spice can I substitute for it?

Hey Dina!
I’m sure you can substitute the oil (we have not tried it so let us know if you give it a go). I would add a little extra liquid maybe a squeeze of an orange. As for our tandoori Spice mix, it contains: Cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, turmeric, garlic, chilies, ginger, black and green cardamon. It’s very tasty, I’m pretty sure you can get this blend (tandoori) at most health food stores or online. I found these two recipes for the spice mix:
