I also made "chicken salad" with them, adding pickles, mayo s&p, and seasonings. I served it on a bed of lettuce, great on a hot day, even better the next day.
My other favorite veg lc meal is a tofu stir-fry. You MUST use firm-xfirm tofu, and then weight it down for 30 min. (gets more moisture out) befor you cut into cubes. Then sautee in olive oil till browned, set aside, stir-fry favorite veggies then add the tofu. If you add sauces, WAATCH THE CARBS...the sweet sauces have a lot.
