Breaded Tofu Nibbles

Tofu is a chameleon, it can take on the taste of anything and I have turned it into a lot of things! This is a simple recipe that lets the tofu be itself for the most part with a little help from Japanese Panko flakes and some back up from a few spices.
Ingredients:
• about 6 ounces of panko flakes
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp pepper
• 1/2 cup water
• 2 tbsp corn starch
• 2 tbsp spicy mustard, or any of your choice
• 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
• one brick tofu
Directions:
Cut the tofu into eight rectangles. Then take the first three ingredients and place into a shallow bowl. Now take everything else and place in another shallow blow. The mustard mixture will be the first thing you dip the tofu in, make sure its good and moist. Then dip into the panko mixture make sure its fully covered. After that place in a baking dish, and cook for about 30 minutes at 350. Enjoy as a side dish or a main, if you are eating as a main dish I suggest green beans as a perfect side!

dipped in flakes!

ready to enjoy!
