Tofu Dips
Recipe by: The McDougall Newsletter September 2005 Vol. 4, No. 9
Servings: 3 cups
2 12.3 ounce packages silken tofu
1 package seasoning mix (see hints below)
These are easy and delicious dips to have on hand in your refrigerator to use with raw or cooked vegetables, or try these on baked potatoes. We use these during the McDougall Program for snack time and they are one of the most requested recipes!
Place the tofu in a food processor and process until very smooth. Scrape the sides of the bowl occasionally. Place processed tofu into a bowl. Stir in a package of seasoning mix, cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours to allow flavors to blend.
Hints: For a spicy dip, use Taco Seasoning Mix made by Bearitos or Hain. For a delicious French Onion Dip, use the one made by Simply Organic. Simply Organic makes a delicious Dill Dip also, as well as several others, including a Southwest Taco. Other packaged mixes may be available in your local natural food stores. Read the labels carefully for healthy ingredients with no added oils or animal products.
