Cooking instruction summary:

Instructions If youre cooking this in your oven, preheat it to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the tofu into thin slabs, about thick and place in a shallow dish.

In a small bowl, whisk together the nutritional yeast, turmeric, garlic, powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Dip a tofu slab into the nutritional mixture and make sure its fully coated. Place it on the baking sheet. Repeat with the rest of the tofu. Oven instructions: Bake the tofu for 20 minutes, flipping the slabs over after 10 minutes. Air fryer instructions: Bake the tofu on 400 for 10 minutes, flipping after 5 minutes. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook the tofu in batches. While the tofu is cooking, toast the English muffins. To make the sandwiches, place a few slices of avocado and tomato on half of each muffin along with a leaf or two of lettuce. Place 3 or 4 slices of tofu on each muffin half, and then drizzle with the Cashew Cheese Sauce. Drizzle on some hot sauce, if using. Top sandwich with the other half muffin half, and serve.

Food Joke

Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out"? Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp which no decent human being would eat? Why is there a light in the fridge and not in the freezer? If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a song about him? Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool lane? If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat? Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don't point to their crotch when they ask where the bathroom is? Why does your OB-GYN leave the room when you get undressed if they are going to look up there anyway? Why does goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours? They're both dogs! What do you call male ballerinas? Why ARE Trix only for kids? If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that Acme crap, why didn't he just buy dinner? Why is a person that handles your money called a 'Broker'? If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests? If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, then what is baby oil made from? If a man is talking in the forest, and no woman is there to hear him, is he still wrong? If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons? Is Disney World the only people trap operated by a mouse? Why do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune? Do illiterate people get the full effect of Alphabet Soup? Why do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere, but call it a hemorrhoid when it's in your ass? Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window.
