Crispy Baked Tofu With Pineapple, Avocado & Corn Salad #A1 image

A.1. Original Sauce Recipe Contest Entry. Who says A1 can't be used in meatless cuisine? It may be a steak sauce, but it happens to be vegan. It adds wonderful flavor to baked tofu, and pulls double duty as part of the tangy pineapple salad dressing. A1 truly gives this salad a unique and lively flavor.

I had a hard time finding firm tofu at the store. I ended up using extra firm tofu, which worked fine.

The salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less pineapple next time.

I found that the tofu didn't get as crispy as I would have liked. I think I'll try baking it at a higher temperature next time.

The flavors in this dish were incredible! The sweet and tangy pineapple paired perfectly with the creamy avocado and the crunchy corn.

This was a fantastic dish that I'll definitely be making again. The tofu was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the pineapple-avocado-corn salad was a perfect complement.
