    Ingredients:

    • 14 oz firm tofu, sliced into 1-inch thick steaks
    • 1/4 cup soy sauce
    • 2 tbsp olive oil
    • 2 tbsp maple syrup
    • 2 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 tsp smoked paprika
    • 1/2 tsp black pepper
    • 4 whole grain sandwich buns
    • 1 cup arugula
    • 1 ripe avocado, sliced
    • 1 medium tomato, sliced

    Directions:

    1. Press the tofu slices between paper towels to remove excess moisture.

    3. Place the tofu steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
    4. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
    5. Remove tofu from the marinade and place in the air fryer basket. Cook for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
    6. Toast the sandwich buns in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes until golden.
    7. Assemble the sandwiches by layering arugula, air-fried tofu, avocado slices, and tomato on the buns.
    8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
