My diet until now has always been animal-based. It seems like almost every meal involved some type of meat, egg, or dairy product. That was especially true for breakfast meals: eggs, bacon, etc.
I am finding that eating vegan breakfast can still be tasty but I do miss my eggs for breakfast. I made a couple of tofu scrambles for David last week but I did not try them. I guess I am going to have to get over the tofu fear. The tofu steak was a good first step in doing that. It was actually really good that way.
Monday night we had leftover bean chili for dinner. The kids had a pizza party for Nati's soccer team and they ate cheese pizza. I thought I would be craving it, but I didn't. That's the cool thing about this diet. I always feel satiated!

We eat tofu about once a week. I usually stir-fry it with onions and garlic and seasonal veggies, with tamari sauce and lemon or cider vinegar. Nothing fancy. We eat it as a side dish. The two youngest love it, too, though the older ones don't. I also cube firm tofu and add it to tomato sauce, over pasta. You can season and fry it up in slices and serve it on a sandwich in place of sandwich meat, too. My youngest eats it plain in slices, like cheese.
I love tamari and I am starting to develop a taste for tofu. I love it more when it is marinated. :) I like your idea of eating it like cheese. I'll have to try it that way.
