Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 block (approximately 14 ounces) Firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1 cup Water
Instructions
Drain the tofu and press it between two plates or a tofu press for at least 10 minutes to remove excess liquid.
Cut the tofu into small cubes, resembling feta cheese chunks, and set aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and water until well combined.
Place the tofu cubes into a shallow dish or airtight container and pour the marinade over the tofu, ensuring all pieces are submerged.
Cover the dish or container and refrigerate for at least 6-8 hours, or overnight for the best flavor infusion.
Once marinated, the tofu cubes can be served immediately or stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Enjoy your Keto Vegan Feta Cheese on salads, as a snack, or in your favorite recipes!
