Tofu Croutons

We eat salad's a lot. I like croutons, but have been experimenting with a healthier alternative.

My first is this one:


  1. All you do cut extra firm tofu into cubes {set aside}. 
  2. On a small plate: Add a thin coat of cornmeal, sprinkle crushed red pepper {set aside}.
  3. In a frying pan: Coat with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and set the burner to a medium temperature.
  4. Coat the tofu in the cornmeal mixture on all sides.
  5. Plop the tofu into the pan to cook all sides. It doesn't take long!
  6. Add to your salad and enjoy!
My second one {a little more cheesy}:


  1. All you do cut extra firm tofu into cubes {set aside}. 
  2. On a small plate: Add a thin coat of Parmesan cheese, sprinkle crushed red pepper and garlic salt {set aside}.
  3. In a frying pan: Coat with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and set the burner to a medium temperature.
  4. Coat the tofu in the Parmesan cheese mixture on all sides.
  5. Plop the tofu into the pan to cook all sides. It doesn't take long! It may stick a little.
  6. Add to your salad and enjoy!
  7. You can add the extra cheese that wasn't used to your salad.
