tofu

[Guest guest]

The only thing I've figured out to do with tofu that I like is to fry it --

real healthy, I know! This is my favorite recipe:

(I hope links are ok!)

 

My aunt has a barbecue, baked tofu recipe that is pretty good, I'll try to

remember to bring it to work tomorrow to post it.

I prefer tofu to be fried in a little oil. It gives it a chewy texture that I

like. Its also the way they make it at our chinese eateries. I also like it in

tofu scrambles and substituted for cottage cheese in recipes. I have marinated

it before and then baked it and that turned out ok. It is very versatile. I know

some on the list like to just eat it plain straight from the container but I do

not enjoy it like that.

If the water is cloudy it's probably bad. Also it can smell funky - a

sweetish, garbage-y smell. I usually end up keeping mine longer than

the date says but if it smells or is cloudy I toss it. Not dead yet lol.

 

Peace,

Thank you all for the help AND the recipes! Thank you for the support

offered too!

 

I did have a neat success last night. Hubby didn't know I was cooking

vegematarian! We had calzones (homemade wheat dough w mozz cheese, homemade goat

cheese, chard, tomatoes, banana pepper slices and basil. We also had corn

on the cob from the freezer. Later he asked if " that was one of those

vegetarian kinda meals " and I said yes. His MAJOR concern then was ....... was

" Don't tell me it had goat cheese in it. " He didn't complain about

vegetarian..... just having his goat cheese " thing " ! Today when he had left

over

for lunch he also didn't complain about " vegetarian " !

 

I'm happy! lol We're in our late 50's and changing diets isn't easy, as

habits die hard!
