I think tofu is best in Thai or Chinese recipes. Most Chinese recipes that use tofu call for the silken kind, but you can use firm if you want. A quick search on Google should keep you busy with all kinds of recipes.
One of my favorite Chinese tofu recipes is Mapo tofu - its a spicy tofu and ground pork dish. Or you can just stirfry some vegetables, tofu, and meat with some soy sauce and garlic.
Also, I rarely ever marinate my tofu and I find that cooking it is easier than cooking with meat. You don't have to worry about proper handling or under cooking with tofu.
