I'm sure you are all familiar with white spongy substance known as tofu. Made from soy milk, tofu contains relatively high amounts of protein and (FunFact) the firmer the tofu, the more protein! Making it a great meat substitute for all you vegetarians out there.
The best thing is that it has little to no taste but takes on other flavors. Toss in some spices or add some marinade and the tofu magically soaks up the flavor like a sponge! Stir-fry is one of the more popular ways of cooking it but I like making tofu fajitas. Yum! Tofu comes in several types: [*Silken]- used more for desserts dishes while [*Firm] and [*Dried]-both of which are great because they bare a resemblance to meat when cooked. Don't be afraid try some today!
