Cooking Steps
- Peel, then slice carrot into 1/8-inch rounds.
- Cut potato into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Peel and cut half the onion into 1/2-inch slices. Cut remaining onion into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Add carrot, potato, sliced onions, half the stock powder and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to an unlined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Roast in the bottom of the oven, stirring halfway until tender and golden-brown, 20-24 min.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- While pan heats, 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. Season with salt and pepper.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then tofu. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook in 2 batches if needed.)
- Cook tofu until golden, 1-2 min per side. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake in the top of the oven until golden and tender, 8-10 min.
- When tofu and veggies are nearly done, reheat the same pan over medium.
- While pan heats, roughly chop spinach.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and remaining onions. Cook, stirring often to remove any browned bits from the pan, until unions are golden-brown and begin to soften, 2-3 min.
- Sprinkle Cream Sauce Spice Blend over onions. Stir to coat.
- Add spinach, cream cheese, remaining stock powder, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar, 1/2 cup (3/4 cup) water and any juices from baking sheet.
- Cook, stirring often until spinach wilts and sauce is smooth and thickens slightly, 1-3 min.
- Thinly slice tofu.
- Divide tofu and veggies between plates
- Spoon some of the spinach sauce over tofu, with remaining sauce on the side.
