Vegan Sweet and Sour Tofu with Broccoli

I had a sweet and sour tofu dish at a vegan restaurant recently and knew I had to recreate it. I used baked tofu instead of fried and made the sweet and sour sauce as healthy as I could. This vegan sweet and sour tofu with broccoli was the end result and it did not disappoint.

Instructions to make healthy sweet and sour tofu

1.  Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl toss tofu in oil and aminos. ½ tablespoon at a time, toss tofu in starch. I shake the bowl a few times to make sure the tofu is fully coated. Evenly distribute tofu on a lined sheet pan and roast for 40-50 minutes
2. Toss broccoli in oil, salt and pepper. Roast for 30 minutes.
3. To prepare the sauce add all ingredients except for the starch to a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and add starch. Whisk until sauce is thickened(about 60 seconds) and set aside.
4. Toss tofu in sauce and serve along veggies and grain.
