The zucchini and onions can be cooked to whatever degree of tenderness needed to make this dish easy to digest for those of us with Lap-Bands. If in the early stages post-op, the squash could be peeled and, if necessary, the seeds removed, although it would lose a significant amount of its fiber and nutritional value by doing so. This can also be pureed.The tofu takes on the flavor of the other ingredients yet adds a nice texture to this dish in addition to some always-welcome protein!

What Are The Ingredients For Bariatric Zucchini Squash and Tofu Skillet Recipe?The ingredients for Bariatric Zucchini Squash and Tofu Skillet are: Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 1 tbspVidalia onion, raw, 1 cup, thinly sliced and divided into "rings" Summer squah, yellow, (young & tender), 1 cup, thinly sliced Zucchini, (young & tender), 2 cups, thinly sliced 2 Tablespoons water MORI-NU® Tofu, Lite, Silken, Firm, 12 oz , cut into 1/2 inch cubes Parmesan Cheese, shredded, 3 tbsp Salt & Pepper (optional) Notes: I rarely add salt to any food and the Parmesan cheese in this dish adds enough of a salty taste for me. I think that black pepper detracts from the smooth texture of this dish. I tried it with pepper but did not like crunching down on it in this dish. My husband loves pepper on almost everything so I've included it as an option. I'm thinking of experimenting with adding a bit of minced fresh ginger root or about 1/8 teaspoon of ground ginger to this dish to give it some "pop" next time. If it works, I'll revise the recipe. If would like to know if anyone tries this with sliced, fresh mushrooms added. I think it might be really good with Portobello mushrooms...
