Answers:
yeah, you can't really taste the tofu in the smoothie, it just adds a little thicker texture!.
also, i add a little bit of flaxseed oil and i can't taste it either!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Adding tofu to a protein smoothie is a great idea!. Once it is blended well, you would never know that it contains tofu (as unseasoned tofu naturally has no taste)!.
All of the fitness magazines I read promote the consumption of tofu - especially via the protein shakes that are made of fresh (or frozen) fruit and protein powder!. They are omni-driven mags, too - so I think tofu is catching on!

Your teacher has good intentions perhaps but since you are apparently a minor, it is better to ask your parents first before you dive headlong into something like this!.!.

Your dietary concerns are you and your poarents business not your teachers if you are a minor!.!.!. If your parents don't approve, your teacher can be reported for promoting a lifestyle!.!. It happened at my daughter's school where one teacher expressed approval of something similar and a parent complained!.!. the teacher was reprimanded and suspended!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

okay i have eaten tofu and taste is one thing it does not have but its good for you
it will also add a lot of calories i think from my memory as well so the more you have exercise you mustWww@FoodAQ@Com

That's a great idea!. Thanks!

Tofu is great for you!. I usually pan fry it up with some olive oil, soy sauce, and pepper!.

Trying it in something like a smoothie would be so different but I like the idea!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Whey protein and flax seed are also good protein sources to add to a smoothie for protein!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Eww i really dont like tofu, i dont think it would taste very good in a smoothie but since i need to eat more protein i will probably try this, thanks!Www@FoodAQ@Com
