Summer BBQ Tofu Vegetable Kebabs
Ingredients
For the kebabs
  • 1/2 block firm tofu, pressed and sliced into 1" large chunks
  • 1/2 small green zucchini, cut into 1" large chunks
  • 1/2 small yellow zucchini, cut into 1" large chunks
  • 1/2 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1" large chunks
  • 1 medium portabella mushroom, cut into 1" large chunks
  • 1/2 medium red onion, quartered and cut into 1" chunks
For the BBQ Sauce
  • 1/3 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • Cayenne pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. To make our simple BBQ sauce, add the sauce ingredients to a small sauce pan, and cook over low heat for 5 minutes. Set aside
  2. Next, add all of the kebab ingredients into a bowl
  3. Pour the BBQ sauce into the bowl, and using a spoon (or your hands) coat all of the vegetables and tofu evenly
  4. Let sit for 20 minutes, and then start threading the tofu and vegetables onto the skewers

  5. I recommend adding a firm vegetable, like zucchini to the bottom layer, so the kebab remains in tact

  6. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes to prevent the sticks from burning. You should have 5-6 skewers layered and ready to be grilled

  7. We recommend putting these on a sheet of aluminum paper for easier clean up and to prevent sticking

  8. You can either cook on an electric home grill like we did for 5-10 minutes, or until deep brown. If using an outside grill, cook for 7-10 minutes, or until deep brown. Enjoy with friends!
