INGREDIENTS
    • 1 yellow onion
    • 1 bell pepper
    • 1 or 2 gardenburger patties
    • 2-3 roma tomatoes
    • 2 stalks of celery
    • 1 can of red beans (or whatever beans you prefer)
    • 1 small can of mushroom pieces (about 2.25 oz / 60 g)
    • 1 whole package of mori nu light firm tofu

      Marinade for tofu:

    • 2 T chili powder
    • Liberal amount of teriyaki sauce
    • Liquid, such as V8 juice or crushed tomatoes

METHOD
Use about the same size pot as you would to cook rice.

Crumble or cut the tofu into very small pieces. mix into it 2 tablespoons chili powder and then sprinkle it liberally with teriyaki sauce. Let it sit while you prepare the other stuff, or if you have time, let it sit for 30 minutes in the fridge.

Dice the onion, pepper, celery, and tomatoes into very small pieces.

Mix the tofu (with teriyaki and chili powder) in with the diced vegetables.

Microwave the garden burger patties according to the directions (or a little bit less) and chop them into small pieces too. Add them to the vegetables and tofu.

Add a small amount of V8 juice or crushed tomatoes, or even your favorite pasta sauce, to give it a little more liquid, but don't add very much because you're going to want to boil off all the liquid.

Simmer it until all or almost all the liquid is gone. Be careful to stir it some to avoid sticking. You don't want very much liquid left at all otherwise you're going to end up with chili soup.

When most of the liquid is gone it's going to look and taste like chili. :)


NOTES
Servings: about 4 bowls.
