Instructions

Soak the black beans. Freeze, thaw & squeeze out the tofu, then tear into pieces. In a mixing bowl, whisk together half the tomato paste, soy sauce, mustard, garlic, oregano, red wine & basil. Add the tofu and stir to coat.

In a large pot, saute the tofu mixture in half the oil until the liquid has been absorbed and the tofu browned. Remove from the heat.

In a small pot, saute the onion in the remaining oil until transparent. Add to the tofu mixture. Add the tomatoes, the rest of the tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, salt & pepper. Add the black beans. Simmer on low heat for 30 to 40 minutes until the beans are tender.

Add kidney beans; cook another 10 minutes. Add parsley & cilantro; cook for 5 minutes. Check seasonings.

Serve with cornbread.
