Tofu Cutlets with Green Olives & Prunes
In this dish, tofu slices are dredged and sauteed as you would with a chicken breast or a fish fillet to make them crisp on the outside and soft and moist inside. The green olive and prune combination may sound unusual, but when we were developing the recipe we had to double the amount of sauce because our tasters loved it so much.

Tips
Rinse leftover tofu, place in a storage container and cover with water; change water every 1 to 2 days to keep it fresh; you can also freeze tofu for up to 5 months (Don't be surprised if the frozen tofu turns a light shade of caramel and has a slightly chewier texture.) Crumble and use instead of the meat in your favorite tuna or chicken salad recipe; dice and add to a vegetable stir-fry.
Leftover canned broth keeps up to 5 days in the refrigerator or up to 3 months in your freezer. Leftover broth in aseptic packages keep for up to 1 week in the refrigerator. Add to soups, sauces, stews; use for cooking rice and grains; add a little when reheating leftovers to prevent them from drying out.
