Ingredients
>
all-purpose flour (about 3 tablespoons )
>
1 egg, beaten
>
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
>
1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
>
2 tsp dried oregano, divided
>
ground black pepper to taste
>
1 pkg (14 oz) Nature's Promise® Organic Firm Tofu
>
1 tbsp olive oil

2 cups tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes

1/2 tsp dried basil

Steps
1
Spoon flour onto a small plate. Pour egg product into a shallow bowl. On another plate, combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon of the oregano and black pepper.
2
Slice tofu into 1/2-inch thick slices. One at a time, press tofu slices into flour, turning to coat all sides, dip into egg, then coat with crumb mixture.
3
Heat half of the oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook tofu slices in two batches, turning to brown both sides using remaining oil for second batch.
4
Combine tomato sauce, basil, garlic and remaining oregano. Place a thin layer of sauce in a 13x9-inch baking pan. Arrange tofu slices on top of sauce. Spoon remaining sauce over tofu.
5
Bake at 400F for 20 minutes. Top with shredded mozzarella during last 5 minutes of baking.
