Golden Tofu and Fresh Veggies with Maple Barbecue Sauce

I always like to try different ways for cooking tofu, it is not only tofu is a healthy food but also when you really find a great way to cook, it is really savory, I found this recipe, and made it this afternoon, I think it is one of the best tofu recipes, wonderful.
