Health Tip: Try Tofu

Tofu is one of the most nutritious sources of protein there is. Try it as a low-fat stand-in in dishes that normally call for meat. Tofu comes in a range of densities: silken, soft, firm and extra firm. Firm or extra-firm tofu holds its shape when sliced; use it for stir-fries, stews and braises. Soft and silken tofu is creamier. When pureed, tofu adds richness to dips and dressings like hummus and baba ghanoush.
