{l} is our oldest girl at 10 years old. She is in 5th grade and loves to read. She also likes painting her nails and trying to be grown up. Most of all she loves gymnastics and recently made team to begin competing as a level 4 gymnast.
{r} is 8 and in 4th grade, but only because we homeschool. . . she should be in 3rd grade. She too likes to read and loves singing and dancing. She recently made the swim team and is looking forward to competing.
{j} is 5 and is (so far) the only boy--and boy is he all boy. He likes trains, cars, motorcycles and electronics. Give him a TV, a computer, the Wii or the DSI and he is happy. He is also happy in water and loves to "swim".
{s} is another girl and is 3. She is feisty but oh so cute. She likes to do "gymnastics" and practices what she calls her routine (basically flapping her arms up and down). She loves taking ballet, swim and gymnastics lessons
{c} is the current baby of the family, yet another girl. So far she's a doll!

many of the images i use come from digiscrapdepot.com
9 people are laughing with me:
I'm squirming just READING that! I haven't any idea! But, I do have a friend who is vegetarian and she uses a product in the store that is some kind of crumbled soy product in place of hamburger. She uses it to make sloppy joes, spaghetti, chili, anything that you would add browned ground beef into. SO, that is an idea - if you aren't set on tofu, and you are just going meat-free...
embrace the beef.
My reaction? Ughhhhhhh! I'm with the Wades: embrace the beef.
As vegetarians, my Dh just throws in a handful of TVP.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Just use veggie broth instead a the beef for flavor. Stay away from the tofu! Gack.
I used to use TVP, which I think is what Elm was talking about. But I tofu would be worse and look like barf. :-P
I suppose you're aiming toward a meatless Friday meal? TVP is what many restaurants use to stretch their ground beef. I know. I worked at one in college. It's not that great all by itself, though--kind of like soggy grapenuts.
If not a meatless Friday, how about ground Turkey? I rarely cook with beef. Mostly bird.
I'm doing more than squirming. I'm gagging.
Ish.
Why do you need it?
Tofu Chili Recipe
1 pound cubed tofu
2 cans of stewed tomatos (or skinned, seeded, fresh tomatos)
2 cans of pinto beans (optional...also, you could use dried)
1 pkg of vegitarian onion soup mix
1 diced onion
2 Tbsp chili powder
2 tsp salt
pepper to taste
* additional ingredients
Mix all ingredients (minus *) and simmer over low heat for 3 hours. Clean up kitchen and be prepared to make alternate meal when family revolts and starts gagging from the smell and thought of actually eating tofu.
*1 big, giant sized barf bag (or bowl, optional)
1 handy toilet with working flusher
1 24 package of toilet paper
Dump any tofuchili directly into toilet. Other ingredients are for if tofuchili is accidentally ingested by anyone in the house before you came to your senses and realized that such a thing is an abomination and should never have even been suggested.
