Steps:
- Check whether green bell peppers will stand on a flat surface; if not, trim bottoms to flatten.
- Drain tofu and pat dry. Place in a bowl and mash with a fork until similar to ground beef in texture.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add mashed tofu, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Cook and stir until tofu is golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes.
- Mix 2 1/2 cups water and jambalaya rice mix together in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir in the tofu mixture. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, about 25 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Fill a pot with enough water to cover green bell peppers; bring to a boil and then add green bell peppers. Cook until softened but not mushy, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Remove jambalaya mix from heat; let rest for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork; add 1/2 the tomato soup and stir.
- Stand the boiled green peppers in a square glass baking dish. Scoop the rice and tofu mix into the peppers. Spoon remaining tomato soup over the filled peppers. Place any extra filling around the green bell peppers in the bottom of the baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the tomato soup topping begins to darken and dry, 30 to 45 minutes.

STIR-FRIED TOFU AND PEPPERS
This attractive stir-fry is inspired by a traditional Chinese dish called rainbow beef. The vegetarian version works well, and it's also easier to make. If you prefer a very firm tofu, take the extra time to weight it as directed in step 1. I am happy to skip this step and use firm tofu that hasn't been weighted.

Steps:
- Optional step for firmer tofu: Blot the tofu dry, wrap in a clean kitchen towel and place a cutting board on top. Let sit for about 15 minutes. Whether weighted or not, slice the tofu about 1/2 inch thick into 1- x 2-inch dominoes.
- Mix together 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of the brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium bowl. Toss with the tofu, and stir to make sure all of the pieces are coated. Let sit for five to 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
- In a small bowl, stir together the remaining soy sauce and sugar, hoisin sauce and sesame oil. Set aside.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates on contact. Add the oil, turn the heat to medium-high and add the peppers. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes, until the peppers begin to soften, and add the garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for 20 seconds, until the garlic and ginger begin to smell fragrant, and add the tofu, dried red pepper flakes and green onions. Stir-fry two minutes, give the sauce a stir and add to the pan. Cover and cook for three minutes. Remove the lid, stir the ingredients in the pan, and taste and adjust seasonings. Serve with rice or noodles.

STUFFED PEPPERS WITH TOFU AND SEASONED WILD RICE (DAIRY FREE)
For the wild rice, I used my recipe: http://www.recipezaar.com/recipe/rice-cooker-wild-rice-426255. You should make it before starting the recipe so it's ready to use when you need it. You could even do it the day before it you wanted to. Just refrigerate the rice until you're ready to use it. This is a really tasty dish especially with the wild rice instead of plain rice. To press the tofu, I put it under a tin foil coated brick for 20 minutes on one side and 15 on the other. It is good to get the liquid out if you don't want to add moisture to the recipe. Note: I didn't add the cooking time for the rice to this recipe.

Steps:
- Remove the tops of the bell peppers and clean them out. Set aside.
- Keep the extra pieces from the top for another recipe.
- Have you rice ready at this point.
- In a large saute pan heat the coconut oil. Add the pressed tofu, garlic, garlic chives and oregano and cook on medium low. Saute for about 5 minutes. Add the wine and de-glaze the pan. I used a heavy stainless steel pan that things stick to, so the wine did the job perfectly. If you use a non-stick pan you can still add the wine or leave it out. Scrape the bits of tofu off the saute pan.
- Saute the garlic and tofu until the tofu turns light brown. Add the marinara sauce and saute for about 4-5 minutes.
- At this point you should turn the oven on to 350'F.
- Now get your prepared peppers. In the bottom of the pepper add some of the cooked rice. Pat it down. Divide the tofu tomato mixture up into each of the peppers. If you have room add more rice and then more sauce. Put 3 slices of tomato on top of the mixture. Top with the shredded vegan cheese.
- I put my peppers in a parchment lined 9x13" baking dish.
- Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven. The cheese should be nicely melted by then.
- Serve warm.
- Bon Appetit!

STUFFED PEPPERS WITH TOFU
Tofu is a great source of protein, 8 grams of protein per 3.5 ounces. If you want to add meat to this dish, simply add either 1/2 pound of Italian sausage or ground beef. I have made this many times and keep finding new ways to fix now I love those Mini Sweet Prepacked there now selling. I add 2 of each of the small to a serving...
