- Jill,
-
- There are probably lots of tastier recipes with tofu than my
- current favorite, but I thought I would share it anyway. First,
- I try to get as much water out of the tofu that I can. Freezing
- and thawing works rather well. Then, I mix about a half to three
- quarters of a cup of bulgar wheat, and some spices: garlic and
- cajun seasoning. Next add like a half a cup of teriyaki
- sauce. With a potato masher, I mash the tofu and all ingredients
- really well and make sure everything is well mixed. Then, I
- microwave in a covered container on high for 10 minutes.
- Then, refrigerate the final product to use in salads, or eat
- plain. It's different, but really has a nice flavor.
