Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (12 ounce) package extra firm tofu
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup chopped onion
½ cup green bell pepper, chopped
1 ½ cups ketchup
2 tablespoons white sugar
3 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
3 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
salt to taste
4 whole wheat hamburger buns, split and toasted

Steps:

  • Place the block of tofu onto a plate, then place another plate on top. Set a 3 to 5 pound weight on top (a container filled with water works well). Press the tofu for 20 to 30 minutes, the drain off and discard the accumulated liquid.
  • Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  • Cut the block of tofu down the middle, then widthwise into 1/4 inch thick squares. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 6 minutes, the turn the pieces over, and continue baking 5 minutes more. Remove the baking sheet from the oven, and allow to cool. Once the tofu is cool enough to handle, cut into 1/4 inch dice.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion and green pepper; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the diced tofu, ketchup, sugar, mustard, and vinegar; season to taste with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer for 10 minutes. Serve on the whole wheat hamburger buns.

This was a delicious and easy recipe. I used a store-bought sloppy joe sauce and it turned out great.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover tofu. I also added some chopped bell peppers and onions to the sauce for extra flavor.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out great. I usually serve it with mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The tofu is so flavorful and the sauce is the perfect balance of sweet and savory.

This sloppy tofu recipe was a hit with my family! The tofu was perfectly seasoned and cooked, and the sauce was flavorful and tangy. We loved it served on hamburger buns with all the classic toppings.
