hi

i've been busy learning russian, so i stopped going online...
you can use italian dressing, balsamic vinagrette, curry powder mixed with mayonaisse (yum), or just plain old olive oil with salt, pepper and garlic. i LOVE "Lily's vintage dressing balsamic vinagrette". (distributed by crowley and shay's gourmet foods out of massachusetts.) if you can find it you should try it, it's so good. and all of the oil floats to the top if you let it sit, so if you want a reduced fat version of it, you can pour off most of the oil. i think i go through 2 bottles of it every week!

mmmm... tofu..

I don't know if you can get it around there.. but if you can find tofu from 'central soyfoods' the stuff rocks, failing that there are a bazillion recipes out there, one of my favorite was is to smoke it (not like that

) ) sautee up some onions and morell mushrooms with a touch of garlic, savory and olive il.. yummy

or.. get some blackening spice, dregde it in the seasoning, pan sear it and top it with sauteed onions and peppers..

or.. (although this kinda ruins the health value (and depending on how hard core of a veggie you are) slice the tofu into thin strips.. flour, eggwash and some seasoned breadcrumbs, pan fry it in some olive oil top it with a little marinara and tofu parmesian!

also.. if you have a Target supercenter or a Hyvee around there.. they have been coming out with all sorts of seasoned tofu.. and I gotta say it's really good stuff (especially the portabella flavoured kind)

Hey,we Chinese often put some shallot pieces together with a little vinegar and sauce.
That's a famouse dish called 小葱拌豆腐(i don't know how to say in english ^^)
May be my expression is not very clear,so please take on all the aftereffect yourself ^^
