” Tony is my husband. He brought home a recipe he had gotten
from someone at work, and it was adapted over time to this recipe –
so I named it “Tony’s Summer Pasta”. The tomatoes and cheese are
marinated in oil, basil, and garlic, and then tossed with the hot
linguine. The tomatoes are warmed and the cheese melts ever so slightly,
creating a simple but delectable meal. ”

” Breaded tofu alla parmigiana. You’ll just about swear this is
eggplant or veal! One of my husband’s favorites, and he doesn’t

Amazingly Easy Spinach Lasagna

“The cottage cheese with chives gives it that extra flavor,
although this adds extra fat because it only comes in 4%.
I have also made it with plain low fat (1% or 2% )
cottage cheese and it still tastes great.”

2 cups basil leaves, washed and dried
3/4 cups parmesean cheese
1/2 package Mori-Nu Lite tofu
1 tsp olive oil (optional!)
2 cloves garlic

Blend or process in food processor until creamy. This comes out looking more
like guacamole than pesto, but it’s yummy!
