Notes

For best results, use extra firm tofu to maintain its shape on the grill. Pair these skewers with Santa Rita red wine for a delightful meal. If you can’t find Badia spice mix, substitute with your favorite spice blend. These skewers are perfect for summer gatherings and can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to grill.
