Hey all! Still have a little bit of a hacking cough, but not nearly as bad as last week so I think tomorrow (Monday) I'll try a little running or other cardio so I can really start Phase 1.
Brandilynn, tofu can be wonderful when pressed and marinated, however I suggest you be careful when doing so. Since you've squeezed out all the excess water it soaks up the marinade like a sponge, in a VERY short amount of time. Depending on the mariande you use (ex soy sauce base) it can become overly salty (yuk!) if you leave it in there too long. I find that really well pressed tofu needs only a minute or so per side (about 1/2 inch thick slices). Good luck experimenting w/ marinades!
