Do you consider tofu a healthy ingredient? It definitely can be. The folks over at Wildwood have packed their tofu with a whopping 14 grams of soy protein. This is especially important for those that don’t eat meat. My older sister is a vegan and tofu provides a lot of her daily protein to substitute for protein that would normally come from eating meat. There are a lot of options when it comes to nutrition, you just have to do a little bit of research.
Wildwood is rooted in the healthy trend of not following trends with all-natural and organic foods. You don’t have to worry about where your food is coming from because you’ll be living the Natural Life with Wildwood.
Besides tofu, Wildwood also makes meatless crumbles and veggie burgers to diversify your diet. The Meatless Crumbles are Gluten Free, made with natural protein, Non-GMO Verified, and certified vegan. The Veggie Burger Original is Gluten Free, Non-GMO Verified, Certified Organic and made with sprouted soybeans.
As for this tofu, not only is it high in protein, but it’s certified organic, Non-GMO Verified and made with sprouted soybeans.
Tofu’s a common dish used in Asian dishes, and it’s something I’ve been familiar with since I was a child. My mom makes great pan fried lemongrass tofu, but I decided to try something different and bake it in the oven. You know me, I just can’t stay away from making things in the oven, no matter what it is. Breakfast… lunch… dinner… dessert… Everything is better in the oven since it’s my comfort zone. While baking it in the oven doesn’t give it the crisp that pan frying would do, it’s a bit healthier since you don’t need any oil to cook it. It still gets a nice toasted color on all sides, though.
This dish can be served hot alongside a bed of rice, or chilled and served cold later as an appetizer. I prefer my food piping hot, but that’s just me. I’m amazed at how low-cost tofu is. This was my first time buying tofu, so I never noticed the price before. With how filling this tofu is, it’s the perfect ingredient to include in your dishes for those on a budget.

Looks delicious! We eat tofu a lot in our family, even though no one’s vegetarian.
My ideal meal with tofu is my grandma’s fish soup, which has tofu and tilapia.
