For added flavor, marinate the tofu in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic before grilling.
A drizzle of sriracha or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes can add a touch of heat.
Experiment with different vegetables, such as sliced cucumbers, red onion, or sprouts.
To press the tofu, wrap it in paper towels and place a heavy object (like a cast-iron skillet) on top for at least 30 minutes.
Consider adding a smear of pesto for extra flavor.

    I found that pressing the tofu for longer really helped it crisp up in the broiler. Thanks for the tip!

  • Vesta Runolfsdottir

    This was so easy and surprisingly delicious! I added some sprouts and it was perfect for a quick lunch.

  • Berta Daugherty

    I'm not usually a fan of tofu, but grilling it this way made it crispy and flavorful. The tahini was a great addition!

  • Vito Dubuque

    Great recipe! I didn't have pita bread, so I used whole wheat toast and it worked just as well.

  • Rigoberto Kohler

    My family loved these sandwiches! I will definitely be making them again.
