Cooking is my espresso--Baked Teriyaki Tofu with basil and pesto

I was so tired from work. With the concern about my see sight, I thought I really had to make myself carrot soup, and also some pesto chicken for lunch. That was what I thought after work, but after I walked home ( it was a long walk from central), I really wanted to do nothing but going to bed. Since I was not happy with going to bed at 9:30, hung out for bit. Then, I thought I might want to cook. So I just cooked, lemon-ginger carrot soup and pesto chicken. and I was amazed by myself, after cooking, I have been feeling so relaxed and happy :) That' me, maybe I was born to be a cook???

Teriyaki tofu is very simple. Usually I would marinade tofu with teriyaki sauce overnight, but if it was in a rush, I only marinaded it for about 15min, and I boil tofu in marinade sauce, after the sauce is almost gone, put tofu in oven( I used toaster oven), until it is dried.I saw a recipe to dip broiled tofu with pesto, so I copied it here, but I think it's just OK. But it goes perfectly with basil, sandwich tofu with 2 pieces of basil leaves. Cindy, my officemate likes it very much. Haha, we have been educated ladies should eat more tofu, so almost every Chinese woman like tofu~~
