tofu. . .

I use tofu instead of ricotta and egg in lasagna, I also use it with canned salmon to make a salmon tofu croquette (fancy term for salmon patty).

You can stir fry it and with any sauce you like and it takes on the flavor of what ever you are cooking it with. You can also slice extra firm tofu, marinate it in your choice of flavor and grill it. YUM! I would suggest slowly working your way into tofu and please give it a few chances if you decide the first time you eat it you do not like it.

The tofu noodles someone suggested ROCK! Especially at only 20 calories! I actually melt some rice cheese in it and a little chimmy churry and it is an excellent side to go with fish.

It actually has tons of health benefits

You're welcome. If you can't tell I LOVE tofu!

I am just starting to eat tofu. I prepared it yesterday w/ marinade that I made. Then coating it in panko and fried it in a little EVOO then baked for 10 - 15 minutes so the inside wasn't mushy. It was delish!
