 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1       tb           Olive or canola oil
  1       lg           Onion
                       - peeled & coarsely chopped
  2       lg           Garlic cloves
                       - peeled & finely chopped
  6                    Scallions -- thinly sliced,
                       - (keep white & green parts
                       -  separate)
    1/4   lb           Mushrooms -- thinly sliced
  1       sm           Red bell pepper
                       - seeded and diced
  1       lb           Silken or soft tofu -- drained
                       - mashed or crumbled
    1/2   ts           Dried leaf oregano
    1/4   ts           Tumeric (optional)
    1/4   c            Finely chopped green olives
                       -(pitted)
  1                    Sheet nori sea vegetable
                       - finely shredded (optional)
                       Tamari or soy sauce
                       - to taste
                       Freshly ground black pepper
                       Hot sauce (optional)

 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.
