Survival Protein – MIY Tofu
Ok, I know tofu is a favorite of very few people! But it is extremely high in protein and much easier to disguise and feed your family than you might think.
You say tofu and all of my children who are now adults still screw their faces up and mutter yuck under their breath or louder. (LOL) Keeping the ruse alive, I always say and no one has ever made you eat it have they? Begrudgingly they nod in agreement that they have never and would never eat something they view as gross as tofu.
I get the last laugh as they have eaten it a number of times without ever suspecting the dreaded healthy white soy protein has passed their lips. I cut it up very small and marinated it with chicken and vegetables either in a Mexican or Asian sauce and then stir fried or filled soft taco shells or egg roll wrappers with it, then cooked as usual and they never even noticed that all the meat wasn’t actually meat! Tofu tends to take on the taste of the sauce and there for is more usable then many assume.
In a chaotic crisis scenario tofu would be an awesome protein for everyone including any vegetarians that might be in your group, The featured link is the recipe and MIY (Make it yourself) of “Mike Internet” that he has graciously shared. My only concern with the recipe is the actual soy beans. Unless you live near a health food shop finding them could be difficult now never mind in a SHTF situation. If you want to try it or store the beans long term they can be purchased from Amazon HERE. I have frozen tofu currently in my home so I don’t know if they are a reasonable price or not.
