04 - Nestle the marinated tofu cubes in the center of the baking dish among the tomatoes. Pour any remaining marinade over the tofu.

06 - While baking, prepare pasta according to package directions. Reserve 2 tablespoons of pasta water before draining.
07 - Remove baking dish from oven. Gently mash some of the roasted tomatoes with a fork to release juices.
08 - Add cooked pasta and reserved pasta water to the baking dish. Toss thoroughly to combine and coat pasta with the creamy tomato-tofu mixture.
