[@eloradanan1837]

More Griddler recipes please! I would have never thought of this...thank you.

[@RhondaReally]

This seems like it would make a great sandwich on Dave's Killer Bread with mustard and lettuce. Crap...now I'm going to press some tofu at midnight. Thanks, guys!

[@smallfootprint2961]

I'd love Dave's but haven't found oil free. Looking for oil free and salt free food. This would be good in a lettuce sandwich. If you've tried romaine or other leafy green as a bread, would be great. Also, half baked potatoes are great as a "bread."

[@RhondaReally]

@@smallfootprint2961 Great idea!

[@Adeline9418]

Ooo!! I'll use seedtastic bread from Aldi!!

[@martelvonc]

My husband didn't like tofu until I started to brown it up in the frying pan first. Now he'll eat it added to anything as long as I brown it first.

[@michaelmappin1830]

Wonderful!

[@KellyS_77]

Martha, have you tried it baked? I think it’s even better baked in the oven than in a skillet. You just have to bake the tofu until its GBD on all the sides, stirring often (GBD = Golden Brown and Delicious)

[@RK-ws3eb]

I love how Jessica hums when she's tasting!

[@Ravyne]

Thanks Brian and Jessica! I actually did buy the Griddler after seeing how many great uses for it on here. Have done the potatoes and the veggies, now I get to do the tofu! Yay! Love you guys!

[@jodigould765]

You guys are really coming out of your shells. You truly compliment each other & Peef is such a helper!

[@rachelkylie3287]

I literally can't believe how good this is. I've heard of the freezing tofu trick but never had the patience to do it. What a game changer!! I don't have a griddler but it turns out amazing on a george foreman too. This is the second time this week I'm making this and it will definitely be a staple for me moving forward. Thank you!! 😊❤️

[@Crochetbymindynh]

I'm totally making this!!! I went to a food truck festival this weekend and had herb crusted tofu skewers. I am going to make the skewers with your recipe. Keep up the fantabulous videos.

[@KrocksInTheKitchen]

Awesome! Sounds delicious :)

[@doloresk9412]

Wow, I think that technique might work for lots of flavor combinations. I can't wait to try it!

[@KrocksInTheKitchen]

He has made others... still perfecting them 😄 so many possibilities!

[@LadyMaltese]

I will be making this with my Foreman Grill. LOVE new ways to make tofu.

[@jaxemay7027]

Thank you I was going to ask about Forman grill

[@JS-ue2ku]

Hey there beautiful peoples!! I've heard about this Griddler device from other PB KZbinr's in the past and it seemed pretty awesome. My hubby told me our outdoor grill died this year. He's a big potato fan and he has loved the grilled zucchini I've made on the grill. Your recipe for the hash brown's, grilled veggies and this tofu recipe is all it took to push me out the door to pick one up! Thanks for the inspiration.

[@jillburkett6876]

I made this recipe this morning and it was very good! I was not a fan of tofu but I am now! Thank you for the recipe!!!

[@desertbluecatnm]

You guys are so funny, love your sense of humor and the fun you have with each other in the videos. And the recipes are good too!

[@karenrichardson6767]

I made this tonight and it was wonderful! Mine was done in 5 min., probably because I forgot the veggie broth in the marinade. We had the grilled tofu on a bun with homemade vegan mayo,lettuce,onion and tomato.

[@jeanc9868]

I just found your channel & I'm so glad I did! Its really different from & its just great to see the positive changes youre going through 💗 I think sharing those positive changes is a great way to turn people onto a plant based diet 😃

[@DaniElle-di4ho]

Hi Brian, I can’t wait to marinate my tofu tomorrow with this recipe, thanks for sharing! I always marinate tofu in a pan/casserole, saves having to throw out the plastic

“ Griddler Tofu oh yeah!” You should definitely sing the title of all your dishes!

[@ladeebug4650]

I totally bought a griddler because of you. I'm happy to see lots of recipes for it. I bought the ingredients for your chili....excited to make it. And I'm going to go throw my block of tofu in the freezer right now. 🐞

[@KrocksInTheKitchen]

Hope you enjoy!

Have y'all ever thought about making a video about how your health feels now? Maybe you've made one and I just haven't seen it. I a'm always curious how people feel after they lose their weight. How much better do they feel if any?

[@barbhayes5613]

I can't wait to try this! I bought the Griddler (on your recommendation, of course) and have been using it almost daily. I love grilling veg (Brussel sprouts are my current fave) and potatoes. This is another great technique to try, so thank you! It's too hot here to turn on the oven, so the Griddler is the perfect solution. Cheers!

[@Purplecat1975]

You guys are amazing!! Keep up the videos. Im doing vegetarian and I feel so much better. I love your videos. And you both have done so well on your weight loss journey.

[@terrig4012]

You guys are fun and amazing. There are so many recipes I can't wait to try. I am new to the whole food, plant base diet and am enjoying all the new dishes. Thanks for all the great ideas.

[@cedarforest4621]

Just tried the Herb-Crusted Tofu recipe. Instead of Bragg's, we put on Garlic Coconut Aminos, which were good. The first four we cooked for the entire 10 minutes and thought they were too done. Second time, we cooked for 5 minutes, and liked that texture better. Definitely tastes better with mustard--we like Trader Joe's Organic Yellow Mustard. Yum! Will definitely make again.

[@ItsLindaMichelle]

Peef is such a great sous-chef

[@KrocksInTheKitchen]

LOL yes he is :)

[@Carcarfranklin]

I literally will be doing this ASAP. With like broccoli and mashed potatoes... or something like that. Looks amazing. Thanks for sharing!!!! Any other tofu recipes/ideas will be so much appreciated.

[@KrocksInTheKitchen]

Maybe a tofu scramble next??

[@Carcarfranklin]

Tofu scramble is the one thing I’m good at. I make it all Tex-mex like, and wrap it in tortillas. Basically tofu migas. I would LOVE to see yalls version. :)

[@sharonberg1220]

Jessica GIRRRRRL! You have got some beautiful facial bone structure! You could definitely rock a Sharon Osbourn style short 'do. But don't get me wrong, I like the bob too, it is cute, and convenient for a pony-tail updo. I love Brian's trimmed hair and shaved beard - very handsome. And thank you for your hard work on the blog and videos-it is appreciated.

[@michellecox8538]

So proud of u both.i noooo how hard it is to make a big change of everything about eating..that u really have to give up alot.im in my 40s and it has been a up and down with my weight.my uncle lost 200 pounds and he really did miss lots of family meal.i got a juicer.much easy for me then measuring all the time

[@tallmantoo]

That would be great in a wrap with some veggies by the sounds of it!

[@KrocksInTheKitchen]

Yes it would!!

[@savannahv1808]

Bryan, you are a natural chef like my husband!! Keep experimenting!!

[@KrocksInTheKitchen]

He is! :)

[@warblingsongbird5530]

Thank you! I have a griddler camping out in the back of my cupboard. In trying to minimize I just wasn’t ready to part with it but really didn’t actually use it! As I’ve been doing Mary’s Mini I was all ready to give your recipes a try. It was great! Thank you soooo much. I won a mini waffle maker that I make potatoes into cute waffle patterns- why didn’t that trigger my memory to the gem in the back of the cupboard!?!

[@301jules]

I love the hints and tips, eg freezing tofu first. If you do a video on nibbles can you include tamari almonds, roasted chickpeas and broad beans? (They can also double as salad toppers). I’d love to see what Brian makes of them

[@helenpennock2012]

Tried it and loved it. I will definitely make again. Thanks for your great content

[@sallyis6084]

Krocks!! I accidentally looked in our Amazon orders too close to my birthday and I now know my husband got us a griddler for my birthday! I am 10/10 excited and had to let somebody know 🤣!!!

That's awesome! 😂

[@ladybrooks3885]

Yummy...another great one from the spice master! And his beautiful assistant. LOL

I get the impression that Brian doesn’t have to move around much in the kitchen with that arm-span he’s got. 😂

I can’t wait to try this recipe...this would be good on a vegan Caesar salad!

[@lindahendrick6222]

BIG LOVE From Western Sydney !! Ive not commented for a while, but I always watch you vids ASAP.When I first saw the title I thought like Cajun Blackened which I do not like ( and was off Thyme for a while hence) but so glad to see what the what is.We have a Tofu factory very close to us and the fresh fresh stuff is really good they make soy milk too.I am working thru a biG batch of Curry that Ian made kinda cleaning out the freezer type recipe but there should be room to put some tofu in the freezer. We have a vacuum packer too I WONDER if you could freeze tofu in the marinade vac packed.It works for chicken, tho i havent eatten chicken for 3 or 4 years.I think tofu is delicious with out much done to it.I do intend on doing a mary's mini but I am just finally over a pneumonia that really kicked my ass ( Aspiration pneumonia) I choke some times I have a neurological condition. Ian cooks for me so i aways need to get on board ! BIGLOVE SALLY

HOORAY A RECIPE

[@mollymalone6664]

Try freezing the tofu. Just, still in it's original package in the water, throw it in the freezer for a day. Let it thaw. After it is thawed, it becomes like a sponge ... Very easy to squeeze out the water. Gently squeeze, press out the water. Cut into 5 strips. Marinated in your choice of season. Cut each strip into half, then put on skewers. Makes it easy to turn on griddle. Griddle all sides So easy, so tasty, such an interesting texture.... Very unlike regular tofu.

[@mollymalone6664]

I should just make a video. 🙄

[@KrocksInTheKitchen]

@@mollymalone6664 Yes you should :D Sounds great!

[@rochelleortiz876]

So I just started the potato diet. I eat 6 potatoes a day. And I weighed in and have lost 3 lbs in 1 day! I'm looking forward to the next 2 weeks!

[@mikeperreault8939]

just watched yet another captivating video from U 2 (Not the band) and I have been eating Vegan/vegetarian for 4 years now and I don't call it a diet. It's really a lifestyle choice and a great way to better health. I'm from Montreal and cannot find some of the ingredients you mention but I will keep looking for them. I will also keep watching your videos because your recipes sound yummy. Congrats on the weight loss. Just wish my 300 pound brother would listen to me.

[@SB-000]

Great opening!

[@MrNioMoon]

This looks soooooo good!!

[@TheFrandall]

I really want to try this! I don't use non-stick products because I don't trust that they won't off gas and pollute my food and my air so I am going to look for a stovetop iron grill pan and do this. Wish I could do it today but I will put my tofu in the freezer right now in preparation... TFS~ I check for your posts on Wednesdays and Sundays every week. Wish you could post daily! 👍❤

[@KrocksInTheKitchen]

Let us know how the grill pan works out!

[@texaspatty4697]

Will the tofu stick hopelessly (without oil, of course)?

[@CarolineNH]

Just tried this recipe this evening. I loved it! Definitely need to add more tofu to my shopping list, and this totally justifies my purchase of the Griddler. (Need to look for more ways to use it.) Hope hubby likes it just as much. I had mine with a bit of hummus (love making my own hummus now) but he'll probably slather salsa all over his.

[@barbaraliston5959]

Thank you guys so much for this very yummy tasting ''chicken''. The texture is good too. Best mock meat I've made. Now I know how to improve on my ''ham'' just by using my panini press. [I marinate tofu slices in a combo of 1TB tamari, 2/3CUP pineapple juice, 1/2tsp gr.clove, 2 DROPS liq smoke, and 1/2CUP maple syrup. I think I'll try grilling sliced pineapple too for a sandwich, adding a bit of mustard]. This fun.

[@StephanieLeach]

Great recipe! I’m going to try it served with mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy.

[@BittersweetOrBust]

I’d love to see a video about what you eat for special occasions (birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, etc). Any favorite plant-based desserts?

[@laineybugger]

Ok I’m saving this idea! One thing I’ve been missing is the Spam fried rice I used to make. I could do that with tofu!

[@nayaab7356]

Definately will try this out!

[@lmlowe9100]

I don't have a griddler...yet. I just use a non-stick fry pan...works just fine.

[@seabreeze444]

I made this dish tonight (did all the prep yesterday) and it was tasty!! But I don't know how you managed to make it with only ONE of those tofu slices sticking. ALL of mine stuck to the griddler and stuck hard! I have been using Brian's damp paper towel cleaning method with my griddler but I had to soak those plates in hot, sudsy water to get all the tofu and marinade off. Nevertheless, it was worth it! Keep those recipes coming!

[@ritaanthony8075]

Omgosh I have that appliance! It’s on!

[@smallfootprint2961]

I don't have a Griddler, but I make a 'scrambled' tofu that is similar... add red pepper flakes. No waiting for marinade. Both are good.

I've heard that if you freeze your tofu, thaw then refreeze and thaw once more before using then press it that it's supposed to have more of chicken type texture. I haven't tried it yet, but thought I'd mention it. As always love your recipes and videos.
