A 445-calorie Brunch recipe from MunchInIt. Serves 2. Prep 10 min, cook 15 min.

Ingredients

• 7 oz (200g) extra-firm tofu, pressed and cubed
• 3.5 oz (100g) halloumi cheese, cubed
• 10-12 cherry tomatoes
• 1/2 lemon, juiced (about 1.5 tbsp)
• 1 tbsp fresh oregano, chopped
• 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (plus more for garnish)
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 2 wooden skewers, soaked in water

Instructions

1. Prep: Press tofu for 15-20 minutes to remove excess water. Cut tofu and halloumi into 1-inch cubes. In a bowl, combine lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped oregano, salt, and pepper. Add tofu cubes and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 15 minutes while you prepare other ingredients.
2. Preheat your grill or air fryer to medium-high (around 375°F / 190°C).
3. Thread the marinated tofu, halloumi cubes, and cherry tomatoes alternately onto the soaked skewers.
4. Grill or air fry the skewers for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the tofu is golden, halloumi is nicely browned, and tomatoes are slightly blistered.
5. Carefully remove the skewers from the grill/air fryer. Garnish with fresh parsley.
6. Serve immediately as a delightful and creative brunch meal.
