What is the best Tofu to buy?
I love buying House Foods Organic Tofu. It is not only high quality and organic, but super affordable. This is tofu you can count on. It is made with 100% U.S. grown, organic soybeans and is high in protein. It is non-GMO verified, gluten-free and certified kosher.
Below are some other qualities about tofu that make it a staple in my home:
● No cholesterol/trans fat
● Great source of plant-based-protein
House Foods is big on including the whole family in the kitchen – like me! To help get kids excited about Tofu, they have created a super fun eBook called The Tales of Tofu.Last week, I read The Tales of Tofu eBook with my girls and they loved it. It’s a cute story about a tofu character gaining confidence, with some great recipes throughout. We decided to make the Tofu Chocolate Pudding from the eBook together. My girls couldn’t get enough. It was such a fun and memorable experience as you can see from the photo above!

- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the tofu slabs to the pan and Cook until browned on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Reduce heat to low.
- Add the barbecue sauce using a brush to each slab of tofu and carefully turn the to coat the other side with the sauce.
- Cover and cook for 2-3 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl add the coleslaw mix along with the ranch dressing and mix until combined.
- To assemble the sliders, place the coleslaw mixture on each sliced Hawaiian roll and top with a tofu slab and a pickle along with any additional BBQ sauce from the pan.
