Place a sheet of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming on top and refrigerate until firm.

(1- 1 scoop soy protein powder (about 2 tablespoons) 2 pounds tofu made with calcium sulfate instead of 1 pound chloride 1/2 cup pink grapefruit juice--buy freshly squeeze -- (1/2-2/3) 1 cup walnuts 1/2 cup almonds 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil cold pressed -- quality is important 1/2 cup frozen blueberries 1/2 cup frozen strawberries 1 cup oat bran 1 cup oat meal--old fashioned rolled oats uncook 1/2 cup flax seed meal -- (1/2-2/3) 1 tablespoon of lecithin granules optional for a sweeter taste to your pie add 1/2 cu In a blender blend the grapefruit juice and tofu. Taste it and it will taste like a rather lemony soy milk product. Pour into a large glass bowl. You may first add to the bowl, the oat bran, protein powder, lecithin, and flax seed meal, stir, then finally the oat meal, then all the fruit and nut ingredients. Stir everthing. Pour all ingredients into the bowl and mix with a large spoon. If you need more sweetness, consider fruit, but please go lightly here. You don't want sugar to raise those insulin levels. I like it without sweetener. You can serve with soy butter, peanut butter, or other high protein or nut butter topping if you wish. The addition of the Omega-3 oils in the form of flax seed meal, is helpful, and at least helped me. This is a nutritious nut and fruit cookie that can supplement a meal on the run. Add one cup to one and a half cups of frozen or fresh blueberries. If you can't get blueberries, any berries may be used. For a sweeter taste to your pie add 1/2 cup chopped dates or dried black figs. Your pie crust: Mix 2 cups of whole wheat or other whole grain flour with a little filtered water and a quarter of a cup of extra virgin cold pressed olive oil. Knead dough into balls and roll out thin enough to drape a nine inch deep dish pie plate. If you don't have enough dough, keep adding flour to water and a little olive oil and roll out with a rolling pin on wax paper or parchment over your cutting board or on a floured wooden cutting board. Coat 2 or 3 pie plates with the olive oil. (I use glass cookie sheets). Drape your pie crust over your pie plate baking dish and push inside. Fluke edges and poke holes in bottom with a fork so crust won't swell and crack. Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 5-10 minutes or from 30 to 45 minutes, until the crust is light brown and a bit firm to the touch. Remove pie crust baking dishes from over and cool for a few minutes. Then, add your pie batter mixture with whole berries floating on top. Return pie to the oven. Bake pie for 40-45 minutes at 350 degrees F, or until the tofu has hardened when you stick in a fork. Let cool. Tofu will further harden or jell to a pie consistency. It will look like a white pie with blueberries set around the top. Refrigerate. When cool, serve. Use a metal spatula to cut slices of pie onto a covered cake dish or other glass bowl. Cover and leave cool in refrigerator. It can be served cold or with a heated sauce served on top, such as berries, dates, or raisins heated in their own juice and cooled with a teaspoon of pectin added. My favorite is to serve with strawberries heated in their own juice and a few blueberries. I add a teaspoon of pectin (I use grapefruit or apple pectin) to the water and heat until simmering. Then cool and watch the pectin jell the berries in their juices. Spoon it over the top of the tofu blueberry pie. The crust should be crisp, light brown, and flaky. That's why it's browned a little first before you add the batter and bake the tofu until somewhat firm. Serve with herb or green tea. The key ingredient is the soy protein powder and the absence of granulated white sugar, fruit juice concentrate, or dairy fat.

The number of slices needed may vary. Cut the crusts off the bread. Put 1 slice in the bottom of a 1- quart glass or stainless-steel bowl. Next, cover the sides of the bowl with slices of bread, each slice resting on the bottom slice. Don't squeeze or force the slices to fit perfectly. When you have finished, you'll have some gaps. Cut pieces of bread about the same size as the gaps, then fit them into the holes. When finished, the bowl should be neatly lined with a single layer of bread. Put the berries in a mixing bowl and add the sugar. Lightly stir the berries to evenly distribute the sugar. Taste and adjust for sweetness. If more sugar is needed, add a couple of spoonfuls at a time, then stir and taste again. When the berries taste sweet enough, it's time to finish the pudding. Spoon the berries into the bread-lined bowl. Cover the berries with additional slices of bread, again filling in crevices where needed. When the top is neatly covered, place a piece of plastic wrap over the pudding. Place a plate on top (one that is slightly smaller in diameter than the bowl) and weight with a heavy object (a can or two of food or a brick). Refrigerate for at least 6 hours. The weight will slowly press down the pudding, causing the raspberry juices to soak into the bread. To serve, remove the weight, plate and plastic wrap from the bowl. Invert a serving plate over the bowl. Firmly holding the plate and bowl together, quickly invert the two. The pudding should easily unmold onto the plate. Carefully remove the bowl. Serve with softly whipped cream. Cover and refrigerate any leftovers (they'll keep for up to 1 week).
