Baked tofu salad

I have been meaning to make baked tofu for some time and finally gave it a try. For some reason it was looming large in my mind as a healthy meat alternative that the boys could like and that could make a big weeknight salad seem like a meal. The key is to buy extra firm tofu and slice it thin and marinate it over night before baking it on a cookie sheet in the oven and tossing it with the salad. I used the nutritional yeast salad dressing mentioned before by Amanda.
What to do: Slice extra firm tofu in to thin slices and marinate in a mixture of canola oil, balsamic or other vinegar, garlic and rosemary over night in the fridge. Bake the tofu pieces on a cookie sheet in the oven at 350 for about 10 minutes, flipping them half way through. Make a large mixed green salad with any veggies you have on hand, toss in the baked tofu and a can of drained chick peas and toss with the nutritional yeast dressing.
