Gingered Tofu Peanut Spread Recipe

1/2 lb Firm tofu; patted dry

1 tb Tamari (soy) sauce

2/3 c Natural style peanut butter

1 tb Lemon juice

1/2 ts Minced fresh ginger

1 Garlic clove; minced

2 tb Water

A little fatty but great in a sandwich with cucumber slices! Puree the tofu and tamari into a smooth thick paste. Transfer into a bowl. With a fork, vigorously beat in all remaining ingredients. =-If you are like me, just toss everything into the blender and forget the fork part=- Let stand 30 mins at room temperature before serving. This will keep 3 to 5 days covered in the refrigerator. Vegetarian Pleasures by Jeanne Lemlin. FROM: BRIAN DONIVAN (PHXT90A)
