When we were young my mom would add Tofu to some mysterious meal and apparently we ate it. When we got old enough to be influenced by stereotypes Sam and I decided that we were NOT eating Tofu - no where, no how and we gave my mom quite a run for her money. She has never revealed what dish she hid it in... a mom never reveals her secrets!
I've had tofu a few times in my adult life and have actually liked it. It gets a bad rap - maybe it's the name - maybe it's the appearance - who knows! I do know however that it is very healthy and should be a bigger part of our diets.
One of our meal co-op meals this week was a multi-grain spaghetti casserole. It had tofu in it and by gum... Braden couldn't get enough. Steve and I talked it up and he doesn't know better yet - so he tried it and loved it. Olivia too but she eats anything so that wasn't surprising. :)
Thanks Cheri for the yummy meal and for introducing our family to this wonderful treat! :)

Can I get the recipe. Maybe I can fool Phil into eating it. Oh right, he gets this, doesn't he? :) I would like the recipe though!!!
I'd like this recipe too. Tofu takes on the taste of whatever it's mixed with so it's not bad. I think the name is a turn off though. I would definitely have to hide it in order for my clan to eat it!
