Oh… and don’t forget a touch of Sriracha Mayo to add in a little pop to the dish.

Ha! Perfect timing, right 🙂 Tofu done right can be wonderful. But tofu done wrong… ugh! If she likes the taste and small of balsamic, this will be a hit with her.
This looks so delicious! I’ve never made tofu at home, but I love it when we go out to eat. I think this will be a good one to start with. Thanks for sharing on Weekend Bites
Happy grilling!
Brilliant recipe! Sometimes it’s hard to make tofu intresting after eating it for so long. I’ll have to try this one out!
I would love it if you would share this on my weekly link party : )
