Tofu can be used many ways...

It does not really have a distinctive flavor of its own,so it
will absorb the flavors of whatever you cook it in or with.
Just remember to change the water daily when storing unused portions

*Mash it up and add it to Spaghetti Sauce

*Mash it up and add it to the filling for egg rolls

*Mince and mix it with rice, peas and corn to make a vegetarian
Taco

*Dice or mince it and add it to any stirfry combination your
daughter will eat.
