Method
- To Make Tofu: Preheat the oven to 400`F (200`C). Spray an 8X 11-inch (20×28 cm) pan with nonstick spray. Combine the tofu, tamari, 1 tsp of liquid smoke, maple syrup, salt and pepper in the pan. Stir to coat. Bake for 20 minutes, stirring once halfway through. When browned, remove from the oven and add the remaining 1/2 tsp liquid smoke. Let cool before using.
- To Make The Dressing: Combine all the ingredients in a blender. Blend until completely smooth.
- To Assemble The Sandwiches: Combine the spinach and half the dressing in a bowl. Toss to coat. Fill the pockets evenly with the salad and then layer in the cucumber. Fill evenly with the tofu and sprinkle each with 2 tbs (23 g) pomegranate seeds. Drizzle with the remaining dressing and serve.
