Making the Tandoori Tofu Skewers

Skewer each bamboo stick with 4 tofu cubes.
Lightly spray a baking tray with veggie oil

Notes
- If you can marinate the tofu overnight, do so.- You will only use about ½ of the marinade. You can freeze the remaining yogurt + cream mixture for future useVegan Option: Vegan Coconut Yogurt and Coconut cream to be subbed for heavy cream. Many vegan yogurts are not keto friendly. If you use it, then this recipe is NO LONGER keto friendly.
