[QUOTE="Spiral, post: 97995, member: 19371"] Yes, I didn't mention which kind of tofu :roll: The soft silken tofu works best, but all I have been able to get recently is the firm one. The Cauldron one, which is most easily available in supermarkets, does not have a good texture for the protien shakes - they are a bit lumpier than when you make them with the silken tofu. The very best one I have found is a very soft silken Japanese tofu from a local independent health food store, but it is considerably more expensive than the others. Also, the different kinds of tofu have different carb ratings. Keep an eye on the packaging. Yes, it is worth getting the glossy one of her low carb cookbooks, she has better smoothie/shake recipies in that one. The ones in the first book involve water rather than soya milk and she refined them for the second book. You can probably get them cheaper on eBay than Amazon. If you are a vegetarian they are both worth getting. [/QUOTE]
