Any Quick, Easy Tastey Tofu Recipes



Recommended Posts

Hi Becky,

I am a vegetarian, mostly vegan and eat tofu and plant based Proteins. One good recipe is a tofu scramble.. its very easy. Make it with firm or extra firm tofu (drain the Water as much as possible) heat in cooking oil spray, ad some soft greens like baby spinach (if you are just on soft foods) or kale. The key spice is tumeric, for flavor and color. Then, for more Protein you can add nutritional yeast: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutritional_yeast

You can top it with fresh salsa and it will be delicious and with lots of Protein.< /p>

Another easy and quick way to eat tofu is just drain it really well and rub with very little pesto, just to give it the taste, then saute on both sides, serve again with light vegetables.

Hope this can help, I will try and send you some pictures of the meals I have prepared with tofu for other ideas.

Regards.

Literally just google tofu recipes. There are many recipes on the Web. Korean, Chinese, and Japanese cuisine features many tofu dishes that we in the West never think of. Tofu is great.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
