Cooking Steps
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Heat a medium pot over medium heat.

- Add bulgur, broth concentrate and 2/3 cup (1 1/2 cup) water.
- Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, cover and remove from heat.
- Let stand until bulgur is tender and liquid is absorbed, 16-18 min. Fluff with a fork.
- Meanwhile, halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
- Add zucchini and 1/2 tbsp oil to one side of a foil-lined baking sheet. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, divide zucchini between 2 baking sheets, using 1/2 tbsp oil per sheet.)
- Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
- Pat tofu dry with paper towels. Cut tofu in half parallel to the cutting board. (NOTE: You will have two square tofu steaks per block.) Using a fork, poke tofu all over.

- Arrange tofu on the other side of the baking sheet with zucchini. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, divide tofu between both baking sheets.)
- Drizzle with 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then brush to coat.
- Broil in the middle of the oven until zucchini is tender and tofu is golden 8-10 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, broil in the middle and bottom of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
- Meanwhile, peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Roughly chop parsley.
- Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
- Add mayo, lemon zest, 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) sugar, 1 tsp (2 tsp) lemon juice and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic to a small bowl. (NOTE: Reference garlic guide.)
