This was delicious! I used the dried basil and added fresh oregano and Italian parsley from my herb garden. I also added 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt to the tomato sauce. Directions were puzzlingly vague. In Step 2, I suggest saying, "Spread 3/4 of the tomato sauce on the bottom of 9x13 casserole dish, and "gently rinse and pat dry" rather than just "wash" the tofu, which is so fragile! Also, specify the shape of the tofu slices (1/2 inch flat? I wasn't sure).
