Thanks for being willing to try a new way of life. :) Be experimental with the tofu...freezing it and thawing it, then squeezing all the water out, gives it a firmer texture, almost like that of chicken. I've made breaded tofu that way with pasta and Prego sauce and it tasted like chicken parmesan. It also sucks up more liquid in that thawed state so you can marinate it with whatever you want.<BR/><BR/>And yes, AJ's right...my life has been so busy I've been making the same three or four meals a week. I hope after this wedding I can cook more of the vegan foods I love.Jeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18402191650681699030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10428721.post-64573551945817205452008-10-01T12:08:00.000-04:002008-10-01T12:08:00.000-04:00Congrats on finishing your month!

I think as soon as we get settled somewhere I will slowly change my fam over to vegetarian and dairy-free. For me it's not really an animal rights thing (although def a good reason), but more for health and the enviro impact. Also way up there is the world hunger issue. And, of course it is so much more economical. I figure with all the money we save not eating meat I can afford to eat all organic and buy my organic beauty and cleaning prodects and not see a change in the grocery budget. Anyway, I am excited for you, and share your new found like for hummus! Yea for great changes!Denahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167408007484325161noreply@blogger.com
