Marinated baked tofu updates this classic sandwich, making it healthier and easier to prepare over any heat source. You can assemble sandwiches at home; wrap each in foil, keep cool, and transport to camp, ready to grill. Serve with coleslaw or fresh fruit.
Campfire Tofu Reuben
Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- 4 tablespoons low-fat canola mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 8 slices rye bread Jewish, Russian, or pumpernickel
- 8 ounces marinated baked tofu (such as lemon-pepper), well drained and sliced thin
- 12 ounces low-salt sauerkraut, drained and squeezed dry
- 8 ounces Swiss cheese, sliced
Instructions
- Spray skillet or cookie sheet lightly with cooking spray and place over fire or stove to preheat, attempting to make heat as uniform as possible.
- Combine mayonnaise and mustard in a small bowl or cup. Lightly "butter" inside of bread with just less than half of the mustard blend.
- Layer tofu, sauerkraut, remaining mustard blend, and cheese between bread slices.
- When cooking surface is hot, grill sandwiches, turning, until tofu is hot and cheese melts. Serve immediately.
Recipe Notes
Camp Tip: Shorten cooking time considerably by setting a heavy pan, a clean flat rock, or a water jug on top of the sandwiches while they cook.
