This is one of my all time favorite tofu recipes. I've done a fair bit of tweaking to it and think that I may finally have what I am after. Great source of protein. Don't be scared by the big pile of spinach - it cooks down and ends up being a pretty small portion of the meal.

These bite-sized morsels are so savory and juicy they will explode in your mouth. Roasting them adds a depth and richness that transforms ordinary cooked vegetables into something elegant.

Make this ahead of time and then refrigerate for a quick, protein-packed breakfast that's also portion-controlled. Top with salsa (optional) and serve with toast for a complete breakfast.

Alright, this is a recipe that I got from a Tofu cook book which my mother-in-law gave me. It is really good, I just got done making it! The only thing I did different from the recipe is leave the patties in the oven longer than what was called for. That and grind on some pepper with the gravy, yum!

"This is one of my favorites because it is easy, fast and simple and versatile. If you like brown rice, I recommend using it in this and all recipes. It takes a bit longer to cook but is worth the wait, for both nutrition and taste. There is an instant brown rice on the market now, too."

Cilantro, green pepper, onion, and garlic give this bean dish a spicy kick.

I love eggplant, zicchini, peppers with a lot of spice. To add some body, black beans make this great vegetarian dish delicious! Serve over rice/pasta, top with parmesan cheese and/or sour cream. Tastes epecially good the second day, flavours mingled.

I love rich, cheesy lasagna, but in the summer when vegetables are at their peak, cheese overwhelms the dish. Adding plenty of fresh vegetables to your regular lasagna for a healthy, light summer supper. Omit any vegetables you don't like, and swap for what you've got in your fridge. (Add spinach or any other green, more fresh tomatoes, mushrooms, chopped and steamed broccoli or asparagus... the possibilities are endless.)
