FABULOUS TOFU WITH DELICIOUS NUTRITIONAL YEAST
Ok, this one might be a hard sell for the tofu first-timers, but every veg head knows this recipe as a standard way to bread and pan-fry tofu. I first heard it from my friend's Mom (a lifetime vegetarian) when I was 16 years old. I've seen a variation of it in the "New Farm Vegetarian Cookbook" as well. Veg head or not, give it a try, its pretty fabulous and delicious. fyi: Nutritional yeast is a non-active yeast loaded with B vitamins and protein, and it tastes a little cheesy, and little bread-like.

Steps:
- Heat a big flat pan to medium/medium high heat with olive oil (and butter if you want).
- Drain the tofu block and pat dry with a paper towel. Cut the tofu widthwise into about 16 thin slices (about half the thickness of a slice of bread).
- Bread each slice of tofu with nutritional yeast, make sure each piece is really well coated before placing it in the pan.
- Cook the tofu until the edges are golden brown, then flip over and cook the other side the same. Salt and pepper to taste while in the pan.
- Serve on toast with tamari or soy sauce for dipping.
