Answer 2

Tasty Tofu Brownie Snacks:

37 min
12 brownies

Dry
1 1/3 cups cake flour or buckwheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Wet
1/4 cup applesauce or prune puree
1 teaspoon canola oil (optional)
3/4 cup sugar or sugar substitute
12 1/3 ounces firm silken tofu
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
1/3 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
Garnish
2 tablespoons walnuts, chopped (optional)

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Pam an 8X8 pan.
3. Mix all the dry ingredients. The recipe says use food processor, however, since you are simply mixing them well, it is easier to do it by hand.
4. Use the processor for this or have a LOT of energy: Place all the wet ingedients in a work bowl and process until smooth. Scrape the sides of the bowl as needed.
5. When smooth add the dry ingredients all at once and pulse until just moistened.
6. Scrape into pan and sprinkle with nuts.
7. Ours formed a ball that simply "fell out" leaving the processor almost clean. It did not effect the end result at all.
8. Bake for 22 minutes or until they pull away from the sides of the pan. Let cool for 15 minutes before turning out of the pan.

Don't want to overwhelm you with too many recipes but this should help for the time being.
Good luck.

Answer 4

Take extra firm tofu and drain thoroughly. Slice horizontally and marinate in one of your favorite Lawry's 30 minute marinades. Preheat oven to 325. Marinate for at least 1 hour and then place on greased baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes and turn over. Repeat every thirty minutes until tofu has browned and shrunk slightly in size. Remove from oven and cool. At this point you can slice and eat for snacks or add to salads etc. Store in fridge.

Answer 5

you could slice it and eat it uncooked. precise it with a mix of soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds and chopped green onion. that's quite scrumptious. or you ought to fry the tofu first and then precise it with that mixture.

Answer 6

try putting tofu bettween two slabs of meat and make a meaty tofu sandwhich
