Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 14-ounce can crushed tomatoes
1 clove garlic, smashed
8 fresh basil leaves, torn
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1 large egg
1 12-ounce package firm tofu, drained and sliced into 8 pieces
2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 loaf whole-wheat Italian bread, cut into 4 pieces and split in half
1/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 pound baby spinach (about 8 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Combine the tomatoes, garlic, basil and 1 cup water in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Season with salt and pepper and simmer until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
  • Toss the breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons parmesan and the Italian seasoning on a plate; season with salt and pepper. Beat the egg in a shallow bowl. Dip the tofu in the egg, then in the crumbs, turning to coat.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu and cook until crisp, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Place the bread cut-side up on a broiler pan; spread the bottom halves with sauce, then top with tofu, more sauce, the mozzarella and remaining parmesan. Broil until the cheese melts and the bread is toasted, about 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in the empty skillet over medium-high heat. Add the spinach, season with salt and pepper and let wilt, about 1 minute. Place on top of the cheese and cover with the bread tops.

I'm giving this tofu parmesan sub a 2 out of 5. The tofu was crispy, but the marinara sauce was bland. I probably wouldn't make this again.

This tofu parmesan sub was a disaster! The tofu was mushy and the marinara sauce was watery. I threw the whole thing away.

I was really disappointed with this tofu parmesan sub. The tofu was tough and the marinara sauce was too sweet. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

I thought this tofu parmesan sub was just okay. The tofu was a bit dry and the marinara sauce was a bit bland. I wouldn't make this again.

This tofu parmesan sub was a bit too oily for my taste, but the flavor was still good. I would probably try making it again with less oil.
