Easy vegan deli slices

Love this recipe, makes a lot ! Super easy too. You'll need:

1 block extra firm tofu

1/2 tablespoon aminos ( i used coconut aminos this time )

2 tsp liquid smoke

2 tblspn nutritional yeast

1/2 tsp thyme

1/2 tsp sage

1 tsp fresh ground pepper

1.5 tsp paprika

1 tsp salt

optional - 1/2 tsp cayenne if you want spicy  : )

First press as much water out of the tofu as you can. I squeeze it with my hands over the sink first, then place on a paper towel lined plate. Put another plate on top & something heavy on that to press it out. Used my mortar & pestle here. Small.. but heavy ! Let that sit for 10 min.

Then crumble up the tofu into a food processor & add everything else. Blend til smooth.

Then on a parchment lined baking sheet, spatula the mix out & spread thinly into a square. I press it down with my hands til its a nice thin square. This is the most tedious part of the recipe, but really not that hard.

Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes & voiLa ! Cut into desired sized squares. Or you can cut round slices with a large cookie cutter. Up 2 U !

Yum.. time for sammiches 

Feel free to mess around with the spice mix as well. I've used miso paste & gochujang in this too, so bomb !
