Thanksgiving Day Tofu

This is a great tasty easy recipe.I pressed and stored tofu 2 days early(no problem)Also I am not vegan & didnt have arrowroot.I added an egg to bind tofu.I recommend it.I added 1/4 teasp.Tumeric & 2 Tblsp.Nutrional yeast and some Thyme as I didnt have Veggie base,gave it a nice golden color and subtle flavor.I dont like adding Sage as it is in stuffing and can be too much.But make extra stuffing,my only complaint there wasnt enough.
