This recipe honestly doesn't make very much sense- there was no time for the tofu to marinate with the spices so instead of getting a delicious blend of spices + tofu I just got a taste of really plain tofu with way to many spices. I would look for another recipe. -
I substituted the tofu with cottage cheese and the soy sausage with drained tinned mushrooms. To give it a nice tangy taste, I sprinkled some fresh lemon juice over this before serving. It was pretty good. Thanks for posting!

I am a vegan who is fortunate enough to live near a wonderful organic foods store, so i get all of my food there. I love to cook, especially desserts, and i'm always looking for recipes that my whole family can enjoy (hard to do, as i'm the only vegetarian and vegan and others in my family are picky).
