Daily Fit Tip: try tofu instead of meat

If you like meat chunks (beef especially) in those main or side dishes, but don't like the possible calories and fat they leave behind, try tofu cubes instead!

Tofu sounds gross to many people, but it's really not. The curd of soybeans has been used for a long (long) time as an addition to many types of dishes, and it's a great substitute for small beef chunks in dishes from all types of cuisines.

So, buy yourself a package or tofu, cut it into small rectangles or cubes, and use the next time as a meat substitute. Once you get used to the texture, you may just realize that you like it. My advice: give it a shot and see what you think.
