Hey, sometimes it takes some baby steps to transition...give yourself time and don't be hard on yourself.
It was really good, but not very different from what I make all the time once it was done. I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
..and nobody here sells low fat or reduced fat tofu. I always freeze my tofu and then thaw it out and drain it (actually I press it with something heavy to drain it)..or you can drain and press the tofu and then freeze it.
It has a much better texture and it soaks up any marinade like a sponge then, so you get more flavor. I like to dice it up in little cubes to marinate it or little "sticks" if I do it in buffalo sauce.
I like to marinate it in Asian type marinades or BBQ sauce and then bake it too...Yummy!
There are several light or low fat "asian" or "oriental" salad dressings on the market that are good. They make a perfect marinade for the tofu...so does the Lawry's marinade...just get whatever flavor you like.
Never ever eat it right out of the little tub or package....(except silken) cuz its just nasty then.
