"This is a recipe that comes from my mother-in-law from Germany. The only difference is that I used tofu in place of the ground beef. It tastes just as delicious as hers."
Ingredients:
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 large onion, chopped

• 1 cup chopped fresh mushrooms
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
