How to Make Roasted Pepper Tofu Mayonnaise

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roast 1 large red bell pepper until skin is blackened, about 20-25 minutes. Place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let cool slightly.
Once cool enough to handle, peel and remove seeds from the roasted pepper. Roughly chop.
In a food processor, puree the roasted pepper until completely smooth.
Add 1 block (14 oz) firm or extra-firm tofu, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 cloves garlic, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the food processor.
Blend until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
Taste and adjust seasonings. Add more salt, pepper, or a pinch of cayenne pepper to your liking.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
