ROASTED GARLIC TOFU SPREAD & DIP (MAYO SUBSTITUTE)

Steps:

• To roast garlic, preheat oven to 350°F Separate garlic cloves, mix with a little olive oil, and seal inside a foil packet. Roast for about 30 minutes, or until garlic feels soft through the foil. Let cool, peel away garlic skins, and discard them.
• Press the tofu for 15 or 20 minutes to expel excess liquid. Place the 1/2 lb. of tofu between dry towels, put on a plate, and add weight (I put a dish or two on top) to the tofu to help press out liquid. Discard the liquid.
• Put all ingredients except salt into a mini-chopper or blender and process until smooth. Add salt to taste.

CRISPY TOFU WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Put a large baking sheet on the middle or lower oven rack and preheat to 500 ̊ F. Cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise, then halve each piece lengthwise to make 4 long wedges.
• Slice the wedges crosswise and combine in a large bowl with the green beans, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a generous grinding of pepper; toss well. Spread on the hot baking sheet and roast, tossing once, until tender and browned in spots, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the tofu into twelve 1 1/2- to 1 3/4-inch cubes. Press with paper towels to absorb some of the moisture; season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and crisp on all sides, about 15 minutes.
• Combine the parsley, chives, lemon zest and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a mini food processor; pulse until chopped (or finely chop by hand). Add the remaining 3 tablespoons
• olive oil and pulse to combine. Scrape into a bowl and stir in the lemon juice and 1 to 2 teaspoons water to make the sauce loose enough to drizzle. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the vegetables and tofu among plates. Drizzle with the herb sauce and top with the almonds and more chives.
