Creamy grilled tomato dip
I’m so proud of this tofu dip recipe!
The texture of the dip is extraordinary! I can’t believe it’s 100% vegan! Semi-firm tofu and cream cheese provide the perfect texture. The roasted cherry tomatoes are the perfect garnish!

Preparation
Roasted Cherry Tomatoes
- Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, combine all the roasted tomatoes ingredients. Transfer to the baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Reserve.
Tofu Dip
- Place all the tofu dip ingredients in a blender and blend until very smooth.
- Serve with roasted tomatoes and remaining toppings.
Note
- It’s very important to use medium-firm tofu for this recipe. This type of tofu has a firm consistency, but is softer than firm or extra-firm tofu, which will give our dip a silkiness while holding together quite well. We don’t want it to be too liquid!
