From the Back Cover
Tofu like you've never seen...or tasted!
You've heard all the raves about the wonders of soy: it's low-sodium, low-fat, and cholesterol-free. You want to incorporate it in your diet to improve your lifestyle, but when you see a big brick of tofu sitting in your supermarket, you find yourself asking, "What on earth can I do with it?" Or maybe you already cookwith tofu, but are stumped when it comes to finding new ideas and dishes to try.
Now Tofu 1-2-3 comes to the rescue with 125 classic recipes that show you just how versatile—and tasty—tofu can be. Imagine Blueberry-Buckwheat Pancakes and Sloppy Joes that are just as good as the ones your mom used to make. Discover contemporary flavors in dishes like Beer-Battered Coconut Tofu with Apricot-Dijon Dipping Sauce, Teriyaki Wrap, and Garden Vegetable Chili with Kale and Black Beans. From great-tasting smoothies and creamy soups to super salads, main dishes, and desserts (even Chocolate Mousse!), this book will show you that tofu means more than just stir-fry.
Complete with nutrition information and easy-to-follow advice on buying and cooking with different types of tofu, this guide is a must-have for anyone interested in taking healthy eating to a whole new level.

"30 Minute" Tofu Meals
I've been a vegetarian most of life, but have unsuccessfully found a good, simple tofu cookbook - until now. I've made numerous recipes from this book and every recipe is easy, quick and delicious. It is gourmet without the elusive ingredients. If you like to cook, you'll most likely have all of the ingredients in your pantry. The first recipe I made was the tofu chocolate mousse (go light on the almond extract) for my semi-vegetarian husband. He couldn't even tell it was tofu. I HIGHLY recommend this cookbook.
Great way to sneak tofu in...
The author of this book does a great job of sneaking tofu into dishes so that you can't really tell it's there -- perfect for someone who's a vegetarian, but has to cook for meat-eaters that are afraid of big blocks of tofu.
Maribeth is clever, funny and prolific.
This is a cookbook that is easy to read. Not only that, but I have found that a high percentage of the recipes are useable and appealing. That says a lot about a cookbook in my estimation. A real pleasure. Though each of these dishes contain tofu of some type, you wouldn't know it by sight or taste. Try the hot apples with cashew cream!
