Tips:

- Choose firm or extra-firm tofu for the best texture in your sandwich. Patt it dry with a paper towel before using to remove excess moisture.

- You can toast the whole-wheat bread lightly for added crunch and flavor.

- For a more flavorful experience, marinate the tofu in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, and your favorite Mediterranean herbs before adding it to the sandwich.

- Feel free to add extra vegetables such as sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, or bell peppers for additional nutrients and crunch.

- If you prefer a warm sandwich, grill it in a panini press until the bread is toasted and the hummus is warm.
