We want to try cooking with tofu just for the experience, but we want it to be a good experience. So if anyone knows of any delicious tofu recipes, please let me know.
ps (Janine, if you are reading this... do you know of any "tofu cheese fondue" recipes?)

Oh I have some good ones...I will have to pull them out when Skye goes to bed tonight and type them up for you...do you want me to just post them as a comment or do you have an e mail you want me to send them to? Just let me know...Skye really loves Tofu :)
okay here are some of my suggestions
It is really good in smoothies, just pop it in the blender with the fruit and yogurt (or whatever you use to make smoothies) blend and viola all ready to eat.
Or you can slice it and then lay it in between paper towels and blot it to kind of dry it out then cube it and mix it in with pasta sauces or in with stir fry veggies and that is really good.
I sometimes crumble it and add it in with scrambled eggs to make like an egg burrito.
Or here is a good taco recipe...let me know if you want more

1 (12 ounce) package silken firm tofu
1 (1.25 ounce) package ORTEGA(R) Taco Seasoning mix

SARGENTO(R) Fancy Shredded Colby-Jack Cheese

ORTEGA(R) Thick & Smooth Taco Sauce

FILL taco shells with tofu mixture. Top with cheese, green onions, cilantro and taco sauce.
What? was my cheese fondue not good enough for you??
Hey I'll come over one night and we can make a tofu spectacular together. It's fun times and quick since you don't have to "wait for it to be done" like with meat. I actually stole your marinade for the salmon you posted a recipe for earlier and whipped it on some tofu... OR we can do a different version tofu burritos . Or vegan mexican lasagna. YUM - possibilities are endless!
