Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Cook pasta according to package directions, drain, then transfer to a large serving bowl.
- Meanwhile, clean the mushrooms, discarding stems; cut into thin slices. Mince the onion and garlic. Core and seed the tomato, discarding liquid, then dice small. Squeeze out 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice.
- Combine basil and 1 tablespoon of oil in a blender or food processor. Pulse until well blended, then add another tablespoon of oil, tofu, and Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, saltn and pepper. Process until smooth. Pour into a large skillet and heat over low heat just until warmed through.
- In a separate skillet heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add mushrooms, onions, and garlic. Cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until the mushrooms give up their liquid and the onions are softened. Add to the pasta in the serving bowl. Add the tofu-pesto mixture to the pasta and toss well.
- Serve with diced tomato scattered over top like a garnish.

- If you’ve ever cooked tofu before, then you know you have to squeeze out the excess water. While there are many ways to do this, I choose the easy route and just gently press it between pieces of paper towel. Make sure to not squeeze too hard, or it will crumble, but also to squeeze hard enough to get the majority of the water out.
- At this point, start boiling water for the pasta and heat up a medium sized. Next, heat up a saucepan on medium heat and drizzle in a decent amount of olive oil. Dice the tofu into small squares, but don’t worry about precision since we will actually be crumbling it.
- Once the pan is hot enough, take a handful of the tofu and gently crumble it over the saucepan. You want the tofu to be big enough to grab with a fork so don’t smash them up too much! Keep doing that until all of the tofu has been used.
- Fry up the tofu until it is lightly browned and crispy. Turn the heat down to low and then spoon out the pesto into the saucepan - feel free to use as little or as much as you like. Mix with the tofu until well-combined.
