| 1. drain the tofu and press for 30 min by putting between paper towels with a large weight (book or heavy pan) on top. | 2. Prepare the marinade by mixing oil, broth, pesto, garlic, oregano, thyme, rosemary, lemon and salt and pepper to taste. | 3. cut the tofu into thin strips. Marinate the tofu for 1hr minimum, tossing a few times to make sure it is evenly distributed but being careful not to break pieces. | 4. meanwhile, combine cucumber, tomato, olive and feta in a bowl. | 5. Take the tofu out of the marinade (reserve marinade) and fry over very high heat in a non-stick skillet until darkly browned (very important that it is non-stick!). Turn off heat and immediately pour extra marinade over tofu. The pan will be very hot and the marinade should mostly cook off immediately,. | 6. Meanwhile, heat up pitas in oven or microwave. Cut in half and fill each one with tofu, tzatziki, and veggies. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
