It's pretty simple to work with, Bob. You could probably eat it raw

if you wanted to, so it's just a matter of getting it as hot as the

rest of your food. So, I like to sautee it and drench it in hot sauce

for a " Buffalo style " meal, or bake it into a pot pie, or mix it with

rice and spinach and microwave it at work. Pretty much the same

things you'd do with tofu, I guess.

JIm,

 

A couple of years ago think we had it at a friends house for Thanksgiving. My

thought

was it was bland. My DW is into real moist turkey so she was not a happy camper

and my

DD (alot like me) thought " it's protein " & good for you.... Think your right

I'll try spicing it

up giving it some life ( " bam " ) & will try it out this weekend....

 

Thank you,

 

Bob

Yah, if you want juicy, you definitely have to cook it in some

juice :) I don't think it's any more bland than tofu, and I like

the texture much better.
