Asian Tofu Sandwich with Grilled Vegetables
Serves: 4

1/2 cup Asian tofu marinade
1 pound firm tofu
2 red bell peppers, seeded and julienned
2 red onions, sliced 1/4" thick
2 yellow squash, sliced 1/4" thick
4 scallions
1 lime
2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce

4 slices herbed bread
1 tomato, sliced

Drain the tofu in a colander over a bowl in the refrigerator. Remove
the tofu from the colander and place in a bowl with the marinade.
Marinate for at least 2 to 3 hours for the tofu to absorb the
marinade flavor. Remove the tofu from the marinade and slice
lengthwise into 4 equal pieces about 1/4 inch thick. Reserve the
marinade to use with the vegetables.

Preheat the grill to medium. When the grill is hot, toss the
vegetables in the marinade for about 5 seconds. Place the vegetables
on a grill-pan and toss for about 3 minutes until the vegetables
begin to wilt and brown.  Place the tofu slices on the grill and
cook each side for about 3 minutes or until the tofu is golden
brown. Set aside to cool. While the tofu is cooling, grill the
scallions until golden. Place the scallions on a plate and squeeze
the lime and soy sauce over them.

Toast the bread and top with a lettuce leaf and slice of tomato.
Place the tofu and a scallion and a portion of the grilled vegetables
on top.
