1/4 lb mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 small red bell pepper seeded and diced
1 lb silken or soft tofu, drained mashed or crumbl
1/2 tsp dried leaf oregano
1/4 tsp tumeric (optional)

1 tamari or soy sauce to taste
1 freshly ground black pepper
1 hot sauce (optional)
Preparation
Great for brunch or a light supper dish, this recipe can easily be
doubled to serve 4 to 6. Silken tofu results in a very soft-cooked
texture, while soft tofu will be slightly firmer.
NOTE: Tumeric will give a faint yellow color to the mixture, but will
not contribute significantly to the taste.
DIRECTIONS: In a large skillet or wok, heat the oil and saute the
onion, garlic, and white of scallions until the onions turn light
brown, about 4 to 5 minutes.
Add the mushrooms, red pepper, tofu, oregano, and tumeric (if using),
and continue to saute over medium-high heat for another 3 minutes,
stirring frequently. Stir in the scallion greens, olives, nori (if
using), soy sauce and pepper to taste. Pass optional hot sauce.
