Evolving 973 Posted March 14, 2013 To dry fry' date=' I cut up my tofu and slow fry it with no oil or butter on a non stick griddle or you can use a cast Iron pan. I fry it on a lower heat to get the moisture out and crisp it up. Tofu isn't really high in carbs, I buy mine at trader joes... Also after you dry fry it you can do different things with it...like marinade in anything (it is tasteless so will soak up any flavor) and stir fry with veggies I like it marinaded sometimes but I will also eat it just straight from the fridge cold after dry frying it [/quote'] Thank you!!

missmeow 156 Posted March 14, 2013 Korean tofu Soup is a good way to eat tofu. My favorite is silken tofu with chopped green onion tops, grated fresh ginger, and ponzu drizzled on it. It is low carb, low cal, and soft. I hope when I am sleeved I will be able to tolerate it bcuz its one of my favorite foods. 1 gamergirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

notmeanymore 629 Posted March 14, 2013 I love all the ideas. Keep them coming . When can you start eating beef Jerky? I see a lot on that? What kind? I actually eat turkey jerky because its a lot less fat. Only .5 per serving and bags I buy (Jack Links) have 3 servings so even if I ate the whole bag which would take me all darn day, its only 1.5 fat. It does have more sodium then other foods but I do not have high blood pressure, drink cup after cup of green tea all day long and dont add salt to any other food so I justify it that way to myself lol.

JeffA70 200 Posted March 14, 2013 Jack Links makes 100-calorie bags of Jerky. I buy them in bulk at BJs. 17 or 18g of Protein per bag and keeps me from having to stare at a large open bag. Yeah, it's high in sodium, but such is life. I started eating it as soon as I was released to solid - solid food. Just chew thoroughly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I saw another poster talked about silken tofu.. That is good for Soups and such but has a real watery consistency you want extra firm for dry frying and such.. 2 AliciaA122 and amytug reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
