A while ago, I bought several bars if Cuisine Camino 100% baking cocoa at a really good price. Then I tasted it... But, not wanting to waste it, I experimented and found that cutting it into small bits and sprinkling a bit if Stevia-based sweetener on it made it quite tasty. Adding some nuts or...

So sorry to hear that about Green and Black!

Extra-firm tofu crumbled up and added to a vegie stirfry.

Sounds yum. Should also work with coconut oil instead if butter. (I especially like coconut oil for its built -in sweet taste).
