Tofu is an ingredient that a lot of people are scared of which is a shame because it's a great source of non-animal protein. This week on Healthy Helpings TV, host Michelle Koen demystifies tofu, explaining the different kinds and how they can be used. For our first recipe we'll be making a quick stir-fry. This is Michelle's everyday standby lunch. It uses pre-marinated tofu and soy bean peas, both of which are great sources of protein, the soy bean peas are also a great source of fiber.

Greetz, and welcome to Healthy Helpings TV! This week host Michelle Koen is showing a fantastic creamy broccoli soup that has a lot more panache than your old canned "cream-of" style soups. Besides some nice herbs, there is a bit of tomato and a startling but zippy splash of citrus, as well! Michelle is busy moving to her new studio in preparation for the next episode, but she's asked us to remind you that this recipe is not only a quick, easy meal for later, but an excellent source of potassium.
