1/4	pound	soy grits

1 1/2	cups	water
1	cup	spinach	chopped, packed
1/4	cup	sweet red bell peppers, roasted	chopped

Directions

Rinse tofu and pat dry.

Cube and puree in food processor with all ingredients except cima mix.

Shape the cima mix into a 12 by 3 inch roll.

Sread the tofu puree on a 12 by 28 inch piece of plastic wrap and roll around the cima log.

Smooth out the seam.

Steam 30 minutes, let cool 10 minutes, slice and serve.

Note: You MUST have a steamer wide enough to support the entire roll from underneath!

If you don't, it will slip and come unrolled.

It'll still get cooked, but rather than a pretty, colorful roll to slice you'll have a serious mess.

Saute onions in oil until translucent.

Remove from heat.

Add bread crumbs, tofu, seitan, soy grits, nut yeast, water and seasoning.

Mix until evenly dispersed.

Add vegs and nuts.

In a separate bowl, mix agar and gluten flour.

Heat lecithin and stir into veg mixture, then stir in flour/agar mixture.
