I'm new to the tofu world. I'm less than excited to try it but it's high in Protein and I need to suck it up and try it. Does anyone know where I can find some good tofu recipes?

I'm not too creative when it comes to tofu, but my favorite (and incredibly fast/easy) tofu recipe:

1 can diced tomatoes with chilis

1 package light ultra firm tofu

Throw both in skillet until all of the Tomato juices are absorbed into the tofu and it gets a little crispy on the edges.

If you like spicy, its flavorful with a little kick. It's very filling, and tastes great reheated as well.

Hopefully others have more creative recipes!

Good luck

Many stir-fry type recipes that call for chicken are easy to sub tofu. I prefer extra-firm, cut into slices, pressed with paper towels to remove extra Water, then cube and use as chicken. I so order most Asian dishes when O go out with tofu--I've found my pouch tolerates it far better than chicken.

You can get a lot of recipes on line. Tofu will absorb any flavor put to it. I like Asian stir fry veg with cubed tofu and a soy sauce, garlic crushed, Fresh ginger grated. Just make sure you squeeze out the Water out of the tofu. You can add a little truvia to the marinade to add a little sweetness Just a little.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
