What do you do when it's supposed to be in the 60's in February? You grab that eggplant and zucchini that's been sitting in your fridge and create a fun eggplant tofu stacker!
Marinate it overnight for best results.
Ingredients:
1 large eggplant
1 zucchini
1 block of extra firm tofu, pressed
2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, separated
Nantucket Secret Spice (to taste)
2 Pyrex or Tupperware Containers
- #1 is for tofu and zucchini
- #2 is for eggplant, layered
2 ripe vine tomatoes
1 bag baby spinach
Preparation:
Pick a container that will fit the tofu and the zucchini. Place Tofu in the container and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the balsamic vinegar.
Thinly slice eggplant and zucchini, separate.
Pick a container that will fit all eggplant, layered 2-3 rows.
Layer the eggplant and drizzle with the extra virgin olive oil. Season with the Nantucket Secret Spice, to taste. (This is a blend of multiple seasonings, if you do not have this specific brand, try a Mrs. Dash blend).
Layer the eggplant and drizzle with the extra virgin olive oil. Season with the Nantucket Secret Spice, to taste. (This is a blend of multiple seasonings, if you do not have this specific brand, try a Mrs. Dash blend).
Now that the Tofu has had a few minutes to marinate, place the sliced zucchini in the same container, and drizzle with the remaining balsamic vinegar.
2-24hrs later.....
Slice the tofu and tomatos into 1/4 inch slices.
Make an aluminum foil pouch for the zucchini.
Fire up the grill to a medium heat and line with aluminum foil (to avoid cross-contamination). Spray the foil with a non-stick grilling spray, and spread out the eggplant and tofu. The zucchini goes on the top rack. After 5-8 minutes, flip the eggplant and tofu. Grill for another 5-8 minutes.
Serve the eggplant stacker on a small bed of spinach, and enjoy.
