Cooking with Tofu

Even though I’ve been a vegetarian for years, I’ve refrained from cooking much with tofu because I’ve shied away from making something only I would eat, especially when I already had so much to make for the rest of the family meal. However, I’m increasing my cooking with tofu these days. I’m pleased to say my meat-eating husband and son tried this dish too and they loved it (and they didn’t even notice the tofu was in it until I told them after they ate it).

This is a new favorite of mine. I recently developed this recipe and it’s so good and my family loves it, so now I have a great side dish to add to my holiday meals! This recipe is so easy and good, it can quickly be made as an everyday recipe too as a side dish for any meal. It would go well as a side for a meat entree as well. Yes, even though I am a vegetarian, I do cook meat.

I’m a Vegetarian Who Cooks Meat. What???

Although I’m a vegetarian, the rest of my family eats meat so I often cook in a hybrid way where I make the dish work for myself as a vegetarian, and for the rest of my family who are meat-eaters with one recipe. I’m the main cook for my family so I’ve come to cook in this hyrbid way for most family meals.

I’ve made a vegetarian and hybrid dish cookbook that gives tips on how to cook in a hybrid way. I’ve been cooking this way for years and years for my own family so I decided I wanted to share my ideas with the world to help other hybrid diet families like my own.

The recipes in this book include both vegetarian and hybrid recipes that contain a meatless and meat portion. The recipes could be easily modified to all vegetarian by omitting the meat, or made all meat by doubling the meat amount.

One Dish Two Diets: Recipes for the Hybrid Vegetarian and Meat-Eating Family

My sincere wish is that my cookbook will provide easy, simple, and realistic recipes for everyday cooking to make meals in hybrid diet homes go more smoothly (less short-order cooking!) and be more enjoyable for families.

If you purchase my cookbook, I’d love a review from you on Amazon:)

Ingredients for Vegetarian Cheese and Tofu Stuffing

The common easy to find ingredients needed for this recipe include the following:

• cubed super firm tofu, drained
• olive oil
• eggs
• cubed mild cheddar cheese
• grated Parmesan cheese
• Italian style bread crumbs

The cheddar cheese chunks will melt, but since they are coated with bread crumbs, they usually come off the pan easily if the pan was first sprayed with cooking spray. It also works best if the food is pushed off the pan into a bowl with a spatula while it is still hot. I always do this right after I pull it out of the oven.

The melted cheese chunks are delicious with the bread crumbs and tofu making it rather delicious with a glass of wine or milk:)

I hope you enjoy this recipe! I’d love to hear about how you like it, drop me a comment sometime about it if you make it:)
