Soft and Silken tofu:

Mash soft tofu with cottage cheese, avocado, chopped cilantro, a dash of lime juice and salt and pepper to make a delicious sandwich spread.

Blend a package dried dip mix with soft or silken tofu or use a mixture of sour cream and tofu for healthier party dip.

Replace all or part of the cream in creamed soups with silken tofu.

Prepare instant Miso soup (available at Asian markets of health food stores), just before serving add 8-10 small cubes of soft tofu to each bowl. It will taste just like it does when served in a sushi restaurant.

-- Blend silken tofu with a touch of soy sauce or tamari and top with chopped scallions.
-- Serve this dip with rice crackers for a simple and authentic Japanese appetizer.
