Tofu Tikka Masala (Vegan, Gluten Free, Keto, Low Carb, Low Sodium)

This irresistible Tofu Tikka Masala is easy to make at home. Skip the delivery and make this delicious Indian spiced dish tonight.

I guess we won’t be ordering Indian take out anymore.. because this tikka masala was fantastic!!  This recipe was seriously restaurant-quality with the added bonus that you actually know every thing that is going into it.

I always associate Indian food with being heavier than I normally eat (probably because I always get samosas) but this dish is full of flavor and also health friendly.  Will probably add chickpeas & potatoes next time I make it too!
