1 c. lowfat silken tofu
1 c. lowfat vanilla soy milk
1 c. liquid egg product
3/4 c. nonfat ricotta cheese
1/2-1 tsp hot curry
1 tbsp chopped onions
1 tsp granulated steak seasoning
1/4 tsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp cilantro

1 med. red bell pepper
1 med. yellow or green bell pepper
2 very mild jalapeno peppers (2/3 of a small can of ortega roasted mild chilis)
1- 1 1/2 c. cubed or ground ham (may substitute 3/4 c. crumbled bacon or sausage)
2 baked, cooled, pie crusts
1 10 oz. bag no-fat shredded mozzarella cheese
1 4 oz. can of mushrooms

Instructions:
Blend in blender the first 4 ingredients and the spices. Chop peppers, ham in a food processor till the size of small peas. Drain in colander a few minutes. In the pie crusts, distribute the shredded cheese, mushrooms, ham & peppers. Pour liquid from blender over it.

Bake about 45 minutes at 350 degrees till knife inserted into pie comes out clean. Let set at least 15 minutes, then cut in wedges and serve. May be reheated in microwave for late-comers. Makes 2 pies, Serves up to 6-12.

Hints: If you use frozen pre-made pie crusts, before baking, be sure to thaw first and poke holes around it to prevent air bubbles; otherwise it may come out soggy.

Substitutions: for those with a wheat allergy, try our corn meal substitute: 3 1/4 c. cold water, 1 tsp salt, ½ tsp chili powder, 1 3/4 c. corn meal (yellow or white). Cook over medium heat till quite thick and stiff, about 8 minutes. Press thick corn meal mixture in the pie pan as a substitute for the pie crust.

*Used in Pearson's Pond Healthy Start Program; especially good for those with low tolerance for lactose and fat. This is very quick to fix and holds over well. Delicious served at any meal with fruit of your choice (and salad for lunch or dinner). Can easily be used as appetizer when cut in cubes or formed in bite size muffin pans.
