Ingredients

4 servings

  • 1 (14 ounce) package extra-firm tofu
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup bread crumbs
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons chopped fresh basil
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons chopped fresh marjoram
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons chopped fresh oregano
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon hot sauce
  • ½ teaspoon minced garlic
  • ¼ cup olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Place tofu onto a plate and place another plate on top. Set a 3- to 5-pound weight on top. Press tofu for 15 minutes to drain excess water. Break tofu into small pieces and squeeze again to remove as much water as possible.
  • Place tofu in a large bowl. Add onion, egg, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, Worcestershire sauce, basil, marjoram, rosemary, oregano, thyme, red pepper flakes, salt, hot sauce, and garlic; mix well with your hands until thoroughly combined.
  • Drizzle some olive oil on the lined baking sheet. Form tablespoonfuls of tofu mixture into balls and arrange in rows on the baking sheet. Drizzle remaining olive oil over meatballs.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until browned and firm to the touch, 25 to 30 minutes.
