Recipe: Grilled Tofu w/Smoky BBQ Sauce

I have to share this one – it’s a winner!  Traci gave me this recipe; it’s from The Get Healthy, Go Vegan Cookbook. I grilled this on our George Foreman grill, but it could also be baked. I served this over brown rice with broccoli. Delish mixed together!It was even better reheated!
