This was my favourite meal before becoming a vegetarian. I hadn't made it for years because there was nothing I could find for me to eat with it. Then to give Greg some more variety I just made it for him and ate the side veggies which wasn't that substantial for me.When I learned about the tofu trick I decided to try it with this recipe and it really works. I still make chicken for Greg and do tofu slices for me. It sounds gross but it works - Greg took a bite of mine last time I made it and liked it. He ended up eating all of the chicken pieces at dinner so the next day he took one of the tofu pieces for lunch and enjoyed it. It's good with gravy.
(You can see the texture looks more like chicken than tofu)Ingredients
2 cups crushed Ritz crackers
3 Tbs Parmesan cheese
3 tsp Season All
2 chicken breasts
1 block of tofu - cut into slices (depending on block size I get about 5 slices, 1 inch thick)
1-2 cups of plain yoghurt
1/4 melted butter
Combine cracker crumbs, Parmesan cheese and Season All. Pour yoghurt into a separate bowl and coat each piece of chicken and tofu. Then coat each piece individually in the crumb mixture. Arrange chicken and tofu in a baking dish and drizzle with melted butter. Bake in a 180C (350F)
oven for 45 minutes or until tender.

This is also a favourite meal in our house so I am glad to have this option to do a chicken and tofu version. I will try it soon!
I cooked this last week with chicken for Josh and Maya and tofu for me. The tofu tasted great! I am so excited that we have a way to make this yummy dinner work for everyone in our household! Maybe next time I'll try tofu for Maya too and see if she notices. :)
