Cajun Tofu Jerky - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb extra firm tofu, drained
    1/2 cup Braggs amino acids (or soy sauce)
    3 tablespoons liquid smoke
    1/8 cup water
    1 tablespoon cajun seasoning
    1 teaspoon honey (or use sweetener of choice)
Preparation
    Cut the drained tofu into long narrow strips(about 1/4\" thickness). They may look big, but they will shrink during baking.
    In a bowl, whisk the Braggs(or soy sauce), liquid smoke, water, cajun spice, and honey.
    Place the tofu strips in a shallow baking pan or cookie sheet and pour the marinade over them. Let marinate for at least 2 hours or up to overnight for best results.
    Cook the tofu in a food dehydrator, using directions, or bake in the oven for about 4-6 hours at 200*F.
    Turn the tofu over once every hour to bake it evenly. Continue until the texture is very chewy, but not crispy. This will keep indefinitely. Store in a container with a tight fitting lid.
    Enjoy!
