The secret to cooking with tofu isn't that hard. Check out these 5+ vegetarian tofu recipes

I have to say that I was a little leery when I tried tofu for the first time. I didn't really know what to expect, but I was most pleasantly surprised when I had my first bite.

Experiment with flavors and seasoning to see just how amazing tofu can be. Of course, if you are not vegetarian, you can easily make any of these recipes with meat as well.
