Show your family some Tender Loving Care with healthy TLC - Tofu, Lettuce and Cucumber. It's a fun twist on a BLT that is unbelievably yummy, with easy homemade salty, smoky tofu "bacon." For quick lunch assembly, prepare the tofu the day before and refrigerate it in a sealed container. Substitute mashed avocado for the mayo, if you wish to make it vegan. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Wrap tofu snugly in 4 or 5 layers of paper towels and arrange on a plate. Cover with a second plate and balance a heavy can or two on top to weigh down the plate; set aside to drain for 20 minutes. Unwrap tofu and cut into 12 slices.
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together liquid aminos, nutritional yeast, smoked paprika and 1 tablespoon water. Arrange tofu in dish, turn to coat well with marinade and set aside for 15 minutes.
- Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray and arrange tofu slices about one inch apart in a single layer; spray all over with cooking spray.
- Bake, flipping tofu halfway through, until firm and golden brown, about 30 minutes; set aside to let cool.
- Spread mayonnaise(or mashed avocado) onto 4 bread slices, then top with lettuce, cucumbers, tofu and remaining bread and serve. Enjoy!
