Za'atar-Spiced Crispy Firm Tofu Bites with Fresh Lemon

Preheat your oven to 400 deg F (200 deg C).

Press the tofu between paper towels to remove excess moisture, then cut into bite-sized 1/2-inch cubes.

In a small bowl, toss the tofu with the avocado oil, grated ginger, and a generous dusting of za'atar.

Spread the tofu cubes and the rolled oats on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Roast for 15-18 minutes until the tofu edges are golden and firm, and the oats have turned fragrant and nutty.

While roasting, prepare the carrot sticks by cutting them into elegant matchsticks.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly—this will allow the tofu to crisp up further.

Arrange the warm, spice-crusted tofu bites alongside the crunchy carrot matchsticks.

Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the entire plate to brighten the earthiness of the za'atar.

Serve immediately while the tofu is still warm.
