Tofu has transcended its vegetarian roots, captivating a wider audience who effortlessly spot it on shelves and craft it into delectable dishes.
This is welcome news, as tofu now graces the new Wheel of Five. Rich in vitamins, minerals, and plant-based proteins, it serves as an outstanding alternative to fish and meat.
Move beyond basic marinated tofu—today's innovations include tofu smoothies and much more.
