Tofu-Powered Pudding
So you’re craving a creamy dish of pudding, but you can’t (or don’t want to) eat any dairy products?
Tofu to the rescue!
Mori-Nu Mates powedered pudding and pie mixes - in chocolate, lemon creme and cappuccino flavors - blend with light, extra-firm silken tofu and a little water to produce delicious desserts with a fraction of the fat of regular puddings (and no refined sugars).
Like they say, the proof is in the soybean curd.
Price: Around $2 for a 3.75-ounce package (makes 4-1/2-cup pudding servings); tofu costs another $1.35-$1.55
Available: Various area health food stores; call to check availability.
