Ingredients
  

  • 4 ounces soy curls half a package
  • 2 cups hot water
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil divided
  • 1 cube Not-Chick'n Bouillon or 1 teaspoon Better than Bouillon No-Chicken Base
  • cup marsala wine divided
  • 1 small onion diced (about 1 cup)
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 10 ounces white button or baby bella mushrooms sliced
  • ½ cup vegetable stock
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme

For Serving, Optional

  • 4 cups mashed potatoes, cooked pasta, or cooked brown rice
  • 4 cups fresh arugula, baby spinach, or baby kale
  • 2 tablespoons parsley chopped

  • Reconstitute the soy curls by placing them in a bowl and pouring the hot water over them. Let them sit for about 15 minutes. Drain the soy curls and squeeze out any excess liquid.
  • Place 1 teaspoon of olive oil and the bouillon cube in large pan over medium high heat. Stir until the cube begins to dissolve.
  • Add the soy curls and ¼ cup of the marsala wine. Cook until the soy curls begin to brown, stirring frequently, about 5 to 10 minutes. Remove them from the pan and set aside.
  • Add the remaining olive oil to the pan and cook the onion, until it starts to brown slightly, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, mushrooms, salt and thyme and continue cooking until the mushrooms have started to brown, about 5 more minutes.
  • Add the marsala wine and vegetable stock to the pan along with the cooked soy curls. Bring to a boil and the reduce heat to medium low. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes or until the liquid has reduced by half.
  • To serve, place about a cup of mashed potatoes, cooked pasta, or cooked rice in the bottom of a shallow bowl. Place a handful of the arugula on top of each, and then top with the soy curl mixture. Garnish with chopped parsley.
