Hi! I'm Marie, the creator of the TofuXpress!

I would like to make this page available to those of you who would like to share recipes you created as a result of using the TofuXpress.

Each customer receives a blank recipe card with their new TofuXpress so they can share their creations with friends and family.  That is how I began to open "new doors" in making meal choices to those around me. 

There are lots of reasons to "eat green protein".  For example, I ran across an interesting statistic that if each family substituted one pound of ground meat for one pound of tofu, that family would conserve 10,000 gallons of water each year. 

So, here we go... my personal experience is that in making subtle changes to our diet, we not only help ourselves be healthier, but also our environment, and those around us are influenced in ever so small ways.  So, why not make it fun and easy by using the TofuXpress?  

Please submit your recipes and photos to  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it  and we will post them here.  Feel free to include a sentence or two on the story behind the development of your recipe.  Please indicate if you would like to have your first name and city mentioned as well.

If you'd like more TofuXpress recipe cards you can print as many as you like for free from the link to the right of this welcome message.

Thanks! Marie

 
Raw Portabella Salad PDF Print E-mail
Portabella Salad 1 Portabella Salad 2 Portabella Salad 3

 

1 package of sliced Portabella mushrooms (approximately 1 ½ cups)
1 sweet Vidalia Onion
1 Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Teriyaki Sauce

If you have two TofuXpress units, this can go faster, but this recipe is written as if you only have one unit.

Place Portabella mushroom slices into TofuXpress.  Coat with half of the Teriyaki Sauce.  Assemble the TofuXpress and press for 2 hours or overnight.  Do not dispose of the juice that forms on top of the TofuXpress as this will become part of the salad dressing.  When done pressing, pour juice into mixing bowl and remove mushrooms from the Tofuxpress and place in the same bowl.  Coarsely chop mushrooms and stir to coat mushrooms in juice.

Finely slice the onion and the pepper.  Slice into quarters.  Layer onions and peppers into the TofuXpress.  Pour remaining half of the Teriyaki Sauce over the onions and peppers.  Assemble unit and press in the refrigerator for 2 hours or overnight.  
Do not dispose of the juice that forms on top of Tthe ofuXpress as  tis will become part of the salad dressing.  When done pressing, pour the juice into a bowl with the mushrooms and add onion and peppers.  Mix, and serve!

1 cup chopped Dandelion greens (or any green of your liking)

Fried Tofu With Rice & Veggies PDF Print E-mail

Fried_Tofu_With_Rice__Veggies

 

1 package of extra firm tofu – drained REALLY well, preferably with a TofuXpress
flour
salt & pepper to taste

1 cup long grain white rice
1 14 oz can vegetable broth
¼ cup white wine (or water)

3 carrots
1 potato
1 medium onion
2 cloves garlic
1 cup peas
1 cup broccoli
soy sauce to taste, I used about ½ cup
worcestershire sauce to taste
1/2 cup white wine or veggie broth
2 Tbsp olive oil
salt & pepper to taste

Cook rice per package directions using the veggie broth & wine as the liquid.

While the rice is cooking, begin preparing the pre-drained tofu. Mix the flour, salt & pepper. Dice the tofu and coat well in the flour mixture.

Fry in about 1” of hot oil (I used canola) until golden brown. Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel.

Dice the carrots, potato, onion and garlic.

Saute in olive oil until they begin to get tender. Add about 2 Tbsp of soy sauce, 2 Tbsp Worcestershire and half of the wine. I used frozen peas and broccoli so I cooked them about half way in the microwave before adding to the pan once the first veggies were semi-tender. Continue cooking until everything is tender. Add the cooked rice, the other half of the wine and more soy sauce and Worcestershire. Heat through. Add the fried tofu and mix together. Add the final dashes of soy sauce and Worcestershire plus salt & pepper to taste.
