Buffalo Style Roasted Tofu
Comments(11) 
For this Super Bowl of weekends, I decided to make the snack of sports bars and fans everywhere – Buffalo Wings. But instead of wings, it’s roasted tofu cubes.
It’s amazingly simple and easy. I used the method for roasting tofu from Vegan Soul Kitchen then tossed in Buffalo hot sauce. That’s it.
So good and rich-tasting. It’s now my snack of choice for all sporting events. Bring on the Winter Olympics.
Buffalo Style Roasted Tofu
Serves 4
1 16-ounce block of extra-firm tofu
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Buffalo Sauce
1/4 cup Frank’s Red Hot Original Hot Cayenne Pepper Sauce
1/8 cup Earth Balance Soy-Free Butter
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. In a bowl, combine the oil, salt and paprika. Cut the tofu into cubes and gently toss to coat with the mixture. Place each tofu cube in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Roast for 15 minutes on each side.
In a wok, melt the butter. Turn off the heat and add the hot sauce. Stir to combine. Add the freshly roasted tofu and toss until throughly coated. Serve immediately with celery sticks and ranch dressing.
Ranch Dressing
Makes a little over 1/3 cup
1/4 cup soy milk
1/4 cup Vegenaise or other vegan mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon granulated onion powder
1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon fresh parsley, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
Combine all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Chill until ready to use.
mmm…those look so decadent! I’m taking spicy peanut sauce noodles to a friend’s for the game. A dish that travels well.
these look awesome! i love the idea of making buffalo style roasted tofu cubes! thanks for the great recipe, i loooooove me some frank’s hot sauce – and a recipe for vegan ranch, too?! doublew00t! yay!
I love the simplicity of this recipe, and all ingredients I always have on hand. I’ll be whipping up a batch next time I have a craving. I’ve never had vegan ranch before so I’ll be looking forward to this as well!
wow…this looks great. Can’t wait to try these.
That recipe looks EASY! I like :D
I wonder how that would taste in a pita, too? Bet it would be yummy.
I’m so impressed! I just made these and they are easy and so, so tasty! My partner and I really like spicy foods, so I omitted the ranch dressing for the sake of ease. They’re even perfect without the dressing! Such a great treat – we’ll be making these often.
Another great variation on those roasted tofu cubes! I’m still toying with those, too. The last incarnation was chipotle chile powder and smoked salt, but the powder was hotter than I expected– I think a more “buffalo-ey” hotness is a better idea! I will definitely try this sometime soon.
These were awesome! Made the whole thing, including the ranch dressing.
Yummy.
Y’know, I’ve never had buffalo-anything, but these look so good (and easy), I don’t think it even matters. I have everything on hand, too! I think I just figured out dinner.
Very sure, this is going to be very tasty and awesome :)
