Give it a Chance

I am always and forever trying to be open-minded about food and improve my eating.  Today that meant trying marinated, grilled tofu.  I have tried tofu before, in a soup in a restaurant.  And honestly the texture reminded me of eating cow's stomach empanadas in Chile.  *shudder*  So when my husband said we were having tofu for dinner tonight -- and I gave him that look that said I wouldn't be eating -- and he gave me that look that said oh yes you will . . . well ---

Needless to say I smothered it in his home-made marinara sauce, sprinkled some cheese on top, melted the cheese in the microwave for a few seconds, and got it all down.  The whole half plate of it.  And though it will never make it to my top ten list, I didn't feel like throwing up after I ate it, either.

So if you have some fool-proof tofu recipes, please share!!!  And if not -- give it a chance.  But have some thick, tasty marinara sauce nearby just in case!
