Prepping Baked Marinated Tofu with Veggies: A Deliciously Easy Vegan & Gluten-Free Recipe

Combine all the ingredients in a shallow plate to form the marinade mixture. Add salt, to taste.
Dry tofu thoroughly using a clean kitchen towel, then slice it into approximately one-third-inch thick pieces. Place the tofu in the dish, allowing it to marinate for several hours.
Preheat oven to 355°F. Prepare a baking pan. Thoroughly clean all fresh produce before handling, paying particular attention to scrubbing any dirt or debris from the surfaces of the vegetables. Remove the outer skin from the carrots and potatoes, taking care not to bruise or damage the underlying flesh. Arrange cubed vegetables evenly across the surface of a baking dish. Savoring the flavors, simply sprinkle with olive oil and salt; for an added burst of citrus, include a few lemon slices alongside.
Position the tofu flat amidst a medley of vibrant vegetables. Bake for approximately 30 minutes.
