I haven't tried this recipe yet, but my younger son (home sick from school today) and I saw it made on a tv cooking show, and we are intrigued.

He and I are definitely going to try it! Apparently, when the xtra firm tofu is crumbled, it has the consistency of feta cheese.

We are always looking for good ways to eliminate fat, and add soy to our diet. There is a bit of soy milk in the crust of this pizza too (although I think we might go with a more traditional tomato sauce on the crust; our tastes tend more toward the savory, not the sweet, around here).

Also, the dough cycle on the bread machine is as good as it gets, for pizza dough, methinks...

Also of note, for those of you who missed this item in the news last week: the longest life expectancy in the world is in a suburb of Vancouver called Richmond. This area, for those of you who might not know, has a HUGE Asian population, the biggest in our area. I work on the principle that they know something I don't know; look out soy, here I come!
