I bought some extra firm tufu. Now what should I do with it? =)

Here is a link to one tofu recipe:

Tofu Stir Fries, Tofu Scramble, You can slice it with a cheese slicer, Marinade it in your favorite Marinade Sauce then bake them on a cookie sheet at a real low temp for an hour or so, makes fantastic chips. Tofu loaf, cut them in the shape of flat noodles, put a cheese sauce over them(WALLA) Mock Mac n Cheese. These ideas come to mind off the top of my head, hope it helps. Judy

X-firm tofu crumbled up can be used in place of ground meat for things like tacos or sloppy-joe type recipes. Add spices and seasonings, cook in oil and use lowcarb tortillas or lettuce leaves as wraps. Add grated cheese, avocado slices and the usual taco toppings.

I have made this recipe and love it...

Excellent! I will try it.

IMVHO the trick to tofu is marinating it. Tonight I drained and sliced my firm tofu in 1/2" slices, and marinated it in a blend of oil and cajun spice mix (watch for sugar and excessive salt. I use "Joe's Stuff" from New Orleans School of Cooking). After about 1/2 hour of marinating, I fried the pieces in oil. Let cool, then tossed in a salad with cilantro caesar salad dressing. The marinated/sauteed tofu is also good wrapped in a tortilla with fresh salsa.

I also enjoy tofu marinated in soy, garlic, wine and ginger, then stir fried with broccoli.
