Go vegetarian with this grilled tofu recipe. It'll be a welcome change of pace from your usual barbecue repertoire. Pressing the tofu with a paper towel before you grill helps to remove some of the moisture from the tofu. When selecting tofu for grilling, look for firmer, non-silken tofu. The charbroiled flavor combined with the sweet-ginger glaze makes this tofu a delicious weeknight favorite. The marinade makes a nice caramelized glaze on the tofu as the tofu becomes crispier on the grill. Grilled red bell pepper, squash and scallions pair perfectly with the tofu that's served atop spinach.
