Grilled Veggie and Tofu Stack with Balsamic and Mint

This vibrant grilled tofu and vegetable stack is a celebration of fresh summer produce and bold Mediterranean flavours. By marinating firm tofu alongside seasonal favourites like aubergine, courgette and earthy mushrooms, you create a dish that is as visually striking as it is satisfying. The balsamic and garlic dressing provides a rich, tangy base that is beautifully lifted by the addition of fresh garden mint.

As a nutritious vegan main course, this recipe is perfect for outdoor dining or a sophisticated midweek dinner. The radicchio adds a pleasant bitter note that balances the sweetness of the charred peppers and the acidity of the vinegar. Serve these stacks exactly as they are for a light, gluten-free option, or alongside some crusty sourdough bread to soak up the herb-infused oils.
