Simple Tofu dinner

Tofu. A controversial topic. I read both good and bad things about it. Since we don’t have any soy allergies in the family, Soren is already 11 months and eats well, and I believe anything and everything in moderation is good, I decided that today’s lunch and dinner will be tofu.

I bought organic extra firm tofu. Used paper towels to soak extra moisture. Sprinkled some coriander and turmeric on both sides and pan fried it in olive oil. When I say pan fry, I mean I warmed up tofu on a pan on medium heat flipping it a couple of times. Anything fried is not good for babies or toddlers, plus olive oil should not be heated to a frying temperature.

Result: Soren loved it so we might stick to eating tofu once in a while. 4 oz of tofu has 13 gm of protein.
