Hi Pril. I eats lots of tofu and it can be taste good if you make it right. The first thing to do is go out and buy a bottle of tamari sauce (it's in with the soy sauce, and I think it's actually a kind of soy sauce, you'll probably want the low sodium kind). Do you grill? You can cube it and soak it in a marinade of tamari and teriyaki sauce and do shish kebobs (this can be done in the oven on broil too).
I have a fantastic recipes somewhere with tamari... and here's one I've posted on here before (a lot of work, but it's yummy!)
Gingered snow peas with tofu, cashews and asparagus
2/3 cup cashews 12 oz. Snow peas, stemmed and tough strings removed 2 TBS. Tamari or low-sodium soy sauce 2 TBS. Peeled and finely chopped or grated fresh ginger 12 oz. pre-seasoned baked oriental-style tofu, cut into half inch cubes (but it's better if you use regular tofu marinated in teriyaki sauce and broiled until brown and slightly crispy) steamed asparagus 3 TBS. Water cooking spray cooked rice
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake cashews on cookie sheet until lightly toasted. 10-12 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, spray a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add tofu and cook, turning often until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Put in bowl. 3. Add snow peas to skillet and stir fry 1 minutes. Add water, tamari and ginger. Stir fry 1-2 minutes. Cover, reduce heat to medium and cook. 4. Stir in tofu, cashews and asparagus and heat through. 5. Serve over cooked rice.
