2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

4. To make the pie filling, in a skillet, stir fry the tofu, celery, onion, poultry seasoning and frozen vegetables for about 10 minutes.
5. Make a space in the pan and add the garbanzo flour and toast it for 30 seconds, then add the veggie broth and mix all ingredients together, stirring constantly until the gravy thickens. About 1 minute
6. Fill the pie crust will the tofu, veggies and gravy.
7. Spread the mashed potatoes over the pie filling, and score with a fork. If you like, baste the top with a little extra melted margarine.

SERVING

NOTE
To press the tofu take a firm block and place it between two cutting boards set on an angle allowing the excess tofu water to drain. Place something heavy on top of the cutting board to help press out the extra water. Allow to drain for 20 minutes.
