This grilled tofu and vegetable platter is a true summer favorite, easy to prepare and bursting with flavors. Marinated tofu and fresh, crisp vegetables create a perfect harmony when grilled. It's an ideal choice for vegetarians and vegans, but anyone looking for a healthy and satisfying meal will love it. Prepare it for a friendly gathering or a quick weeknight dinner!

Steps

Prepare and Marinate Tofu

Press the tofu to remove excess water, then cut it into 2-3 cm cubes or slices. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Add the tofu and toss thoroughly to coat it with the marinade. Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes, ideally 30-60 minutes at room temperature, or several hours in the refrigerator.

Prepare Vegetables

Wash and chop the vegetables: bell peppers and zucchini into 2-3 cm pieces, red onion into thick rings. Leave cherry tomatoes and mushrooms whole. In a separate bowl, toss the vegetables with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated tofu and vegetables on the grill grates or in a grill basket. Grill the tofu and vegetables for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the tofu is golden brown and slightly crispy, and the vegetables are tender and lightly charred. Cherry tomatoes and mushrooms will cook faster, in about 8-10 minutes.

Serve

Remove the cooked tofu and vegetables from the grill and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley for extra flavor. Enjoy it on its own, or as a side dish with rice, quinoa, or a fresh salad.

Extra Tips

► For even more flavor, marinate the tofu for at least 30 minutes, or even several hours, before grilling.

► Use a grill basket for smaller vegetables like cherry tomatoes or mushrooms to prevent them from falling through the grates.

► Experiment with other vegetables like eggplant, asparagus, or broccoli to vary your grilled platter.
