Tofu can be stir fried with vegetables, or cooked with pasta/noodles. Cut into cubes and throw out the water.How do you cook tofu?
Google for recipes or look in a cookbook



What I do is I marinate the tofu in soy-vey sauce or terriaki sauce with a mix of spices (red pepper, chilipeper, marjoram) I then let it sit for at least ten minutes.



While that is sitting, chop up some onions, zucchini, pepper and any other vegetable you see fit. Then put that in a skllit with some olive oil or butter and sautee it (till the peppers are soft and onions are clear) then you can put in the tofu (try not to let any sauce in, but its okay if you do.



I like to cook rice with it too. Sometimes I'll put in some eggs whil I sautee the vegetables when I'm using rice.
Ok hun, take a shallow skillet, put some oil (olive oil is good) and cut tofu into 1/2 inch pieces. Add to skillet. Brown on Med High or just Med. When it will be golden brown, it should be good. Salt if you want. I like to eat tofu with a fried salad like peppers, onions, and carrots.
There are lots of good, easy tofu recipes on-line that you can try. Start with these and see which ones you like:

for a more firm consistency, open the tub drain it, give it a little squeeze and then freeze it. thaw and squeeze it some more. then cook however you would like. much better this way imo.
