Citrus Tofu Kebabs
Flavorful Citrus Tofu Kebabs are so easy to make. Marinated tofu, zucchini, and colorful bell peppers are marinated with a tangy citrus sauce and baked until golden.
Looking for fun and creative ways to prepare tofu? These citrus tofu kebabs are definitely the answer. They not only look great but they taste delicious! My nieces and nephews are here visiting for the summer, so I have to prepare dishes that are appealing to teenagers. We are always on the go from one activity to another so meals have to be prepared quickly.
I marinated cubes of tofu and veggies in a flavorful marinade ahead of time and broil them for 12 minutes. They are delicious served on a bed of my Turmeric Coconut Rice or my Spinach Rice.
