The weather here in Zurich has been incredible – hot, sunny and all things summery – the perfect weather for barbecuing. One of my current favorites for throwing on the grill are these flavorsome tofu skewers, the recipe for which I came up with in collaboration with Migros, for their summer grill campaign (#grillitarier) 😉

Mediterranean Tofu Skewers

Makes: ca. 9 skewers

Ingredients

• 400g tofu (2 x 200g blocks), cubed
• 100g sundried tomatoes (in olive oil and herbs); drained
• 100g green olives
• 1 tbsp olive oil (from the jar of tomatoes)
• 1/2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• salt and cayenne pepper to season
• 1 yellow bell pepper / veg of choice, sliced

Method

1. Prick the cubed tofu with a fork (this will help the marinade soak in more).
2. Blend together the sundried tomatoes and olives, adding the olive oil, balsamic vinegar and seasoning.
3. Coat the tofu cubes in the marinade, rubbing the marinade onto the tofu. Cover and leave in the fridge for a few hours (ideally overnight).
4. Assemble skewers by alternating cubes of tofu and sliced vegetables and cook on a tray over the grill (top with extra marinade that has fallen off).
5. Serve with sweet potato wedges, quinoa, salad, couscous or whatever your favorite BBQ sides are.

Enjoy!
