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

Ole and Lena were sitting down to their usual morning cup of coffee listening to the weather report on the radio. "There will be 3 to 5 inches of snow today, and a snow emergency has been declared," the weather report said. "You must park your cars on the odd numbered side of the streets." Ole said, "Jeez, okay," and got up from his coffee. The next day they were sitting down with their morning cups of coffee. The weather forecast was, "There will be 2 to 4 inches of snow today, and a snow emergency has been declared. You must park your cars on the even numbered side of the streets." Again Ole replied, "Jeez, okay," and got up from his coffee. Two days later, again they're sitting down with their cups of coffee and the weather forecast said, "There will be 6 to 8 inches of snow today, and a snow emergency has been declared. You must park your cars on the..." and the power went out and Ole didn't get the rest of the instructions. He turned to Lena, "Jeez, what am I going to do now, Lena?" Lena replied, "Aw, Ole, just leave the car in the damned garage today."
