Ingredients

  • 1 12 inch pizza crust
  • ½ cup tomato sauce
  • 1.5 cups mozzarella cheese
  • 8 oz firm tofu
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Press the 8 oz tofu between paper towels to remove excess water, then cut into 1/2 inch cubes.

  2. 2

    In a skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium-high. Add tofu cubes and cook until golden and crispy on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Place the 12 inch pizza crust on a baking sheet. Spread 1/2 cup tomato sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a 1 inch border.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle 1.5 cups mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Scatter the crispy tofu cubes on top.

  5. 5

    Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden. Sprinkle with 1 tsp dried oregano before serving.
