1/4cup lemon juice
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp olive oil

1 green bell pepper, chopped

Instructions
In a bowl, combine cubed tofu, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let marinate for at least 30 minutes, preferably overnight in the fridge.

For extra flavor, marinate the tofu overnight.
Use English cucumber for fewer seeds and less water content.
