Looking for alternatives

In what way? In entrees? For dips/smoothies? As an egg replacer?

Tofu can serve many functions.

If you're looking to replace it in most entrees, using seitan may work. You can also check out chickpea tofu -- it's soy-free (at least, the ones I have seen are -- check the labels of ones you may find to make sure).

For dips or smoothies, I would recommend coconut or almond yogurt. You can also make your own cashew cream or use coconut milk, depending on what consistency you're looking for.

If you're using it in baked goods to replace egg, try flaxseed meal (1 tablespoon of flaxmeal mixed with 2 tablespoons water can replace one egg), mashed banana, or applesauce (the last two will add sweetness too, of course).

You probably won't be able to find a single product to replace everything that tofu can do, but depending on the function it is serving in the recipe, you will often be able to substitute something else. The trick is just understanding the purpose it is serving in the recipe.

This is really good. I found it at Whole Foods. I presume you're looking for meaty alternatives?



You could also jazz up a portobello mushroom.

Seitan?
