At least here it is…
And, this coming from someone who once thought people who are tofu were… well, weird.
Are you tired about hearing about my cooking? Get over it! I’m so completely in love with this cooking thing, primarily because I’m doing it… not only that, but somewhat well!
Anywho, I got a recipe from a gal at church and I made it with peppers and onions… and some spices, and garlic..
Matthew, who told me he didn’t like peppers and onions, came in the kitchen and said, “What smells so good?”
As he looked on into the skillet, he spied the peppers and onions and then watched me add the tofu. “I’m making myself some lunch. It’s tofu.”
He asked what it was and I replied, “something vegetarians eat, I thought I would try it.” I really wasn’t in the mood for yet another PB&J with 100% all natural PB & J on Ezekial bread. I still love it, but I wanted something different.
He asked if he could try it. He had already finished his lunch, but I said yes. And he did.
And he liked it.
And so did I.
So, tonight, I got adventurous… a friend told me I could marinate it in soy sauce, so I did… and then I added some green peppers and onions and the tofu and stir fried it all up and put it over brown rice…
See?
Yes, stir fry is best complimented by baked potatoes… didn’t you know that?
Ok, so my presentation needs a little work, but it was yummy! 
Matthew loved it, every bit of it… and because he found out that tofu was so rich with protein, he asked me if I would make it the way I made it for lunch yesterday, for breakfast in the morning…because he’s got testing… and I happily said yes.
I even have to get up a little bit earlier since this will take just a tad longer than his normal PB and banana smoothie. And I’m excited.
Do you know the last time I made my kids breakfast in the morning? I can’t tell you when….
But tonight was day 10 of home cooked meals.
And last night? I made my own spaghetti sauce.. from scratch!
Can you believe it?
I know! Neither can I!
Until next time…

I eat tahu almost everyday, and yes it’s smooth and delicious and healthy. Tahu is like ‘brother’ to tofu. They are so similar and both are made of soy bean.

I love tofu! My husband does too, but I’ve never actually made it at home. Now I just may have to try!

I’ve taken up the cooking thing also! I haven’t been as consistent as you have been but I’m working on it. I’m learning and that’s what is important
Yeah way to go Heather! Keep it up girl. You rock.
