2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 tablespoon light brown sugar
For the loaf
1 (14-ounce) package extra-firm tofu, drained
1/2 pound ground beef

1/2 onion, finely chopped

Steps:

  • 1. A day in advance, crumble the tofu into a plastic container. Freeze overnight or for up to 4 hours. Thaw the tofu and pat it dry with a paper towel before using.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350°F. In a small bowl, whisk together the topping ingredients.

  • 5. Remove and let the loaf cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
