Creamy Sun-Dried Tofu

If you like extra-firm tofu, you’ll love this Italian dinner — 25 minutes from craving to table. At 450 calories and 26g protein per serving, it fits easily into a high-protein day. Leftovers keep well, so it doubles as next-day lunch without any extra work.

Ingredients

• 14 oz Extra-firm tofu
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1/2 cup Sun-dried tomatoes
• 3 cups Baby spinach
• 1/2 cup Parmesan
• 4 cloves Garlic
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 2 tbsp Olive oil

Steps

1. Press the tofu 10 minutes between kitchen towels with a heavy pan on top — dry tofu crisps; wet tofu steams.
2. Cut into 1-inch cubes and sear in the olive oil over medium-high heat, turning, about 8 minutes, until golden on most sides.
3. Push the tofu to the edges; soften the minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes in the center 1 minute.
4. Pour in the cream and simmer 3 minutes, until slightly thickened.
5. Whisk in the parmesan and Italian seasoning until the sauce is completely smooth.
6. Fold in the spinach and stir 1 minute, just until wilted.
7. Rest 3 minutes off the heat — the sauce thickens noticeably as it stands.
