I'm new to the tofu world. I'm less than excited to try it but it's high in Protein and I need to suck it up and try it. Does anyone know where I can find some good tofu recipes?

I'm not too creative when it comes to tofu, but my favorite (and incredibly fast/easy) tofu recipe:

1 can diced tomatoes with chilis

1 package light ultra firm tofu

Throw both in skillet until all of the Tomato juices are absorbed into the tofu and it gets a little crispy on the edges.

If you like spicy, its flavorful with a little kick. It's very filling, and tastes great reheated as well.

Hopefully others have more creative recipes!

Good luck

Many stir-fry type recipes that call for chicken are easy to sub tofu. I prefer extra-firm, cut into slices, pressed with paper towels to remove extra Water, then cube and use as chicken. I so order most Asian dishes when O go out with tofu--I've found my pouch tolerates it far better than chicken.

You can get a lot of recipes on line. Tofu will absorb any flavor put to it. I like Asian stir fry veg with cubed tofu and a soy sauce, garlic crushed, Fresh ginger grated. Just make sure you squeeze out the Water out of the tofu. You can add a little truvia to the marinade to add a little sweetness Just a little.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
