Even in families who are committed to Meatless Monday meals, I'm guessing tofu can be a tough sell sometimes.  And the idea of convincing people who think they don't like tofu to try it as a snack might be even harder!  But don't give up on getting your family to enjoy tofu unless you've tried pressed and  baked tofu, because pressing out the water and baking the tofu makes it firmer and more chewy, and that should make it more appealing to people who don't like the texture of softer tofu.  And if you have a delicious peanut buttery sauce to dip those tofu sticks into, I think that makes it even better. 

I tried three versions of these Baked Sesame Tofu Sticks with Peanut Butter, Tahini, and Ginger Sauce to get one I thought was just right.  The tofu sticks were delicious warm, and I even liked the leftovers that had been in the fridge for a few days!
