Ingredients:
1 large onion
1 lb mushrooms
4-8 oz homemade soy yogurt, or 3-6 oz WholeSoy Yogurt (plain unsweetened) (note, the WholeSoy yogurt is stronger than my homemade so I'd start with 3 oz and see if it's too tart, then add more if you'd like).
1 tsp sweet paprika
1 tsp tarragon
1 tsp oregano
(amounts and choice of herbs doesn't matter too much)
2-4 tsp chopped fresh dill (or 1 tsp dried)
1 T unsalted mustard (I'm not sure, I just gave a biggish squirt)
1-2 cups cooked brown rice or
1 head lettuce/spinach
1/2-1 cup frozen peas, optional
some kale, optional
Here's the dried spices and mustard I used:
Like I said, I was just guessing. thyme could be good. tarragon? suggestions welcome!
To cook:
Chop the onions while heating up a dry pan on the stove. Throw the onions in the pan and let them sear. Stir and let brown a bit, while chopping the mushrooms. throw them in the pan. stir. they will release their liquids. add kale if you want (probably not recommended but if you want some greens...) add the dry spices and mustard. if you need to add some water, start with 1/4-1/3 cup, i.e., not too much. Let that simmer until the onions (and kale) are as tender as you want (5-10 minutes or up to you). add the peas if you want them, cook for a few more minutes. add the dill. add the yogurt.
Serve over brown rice and/or chopped lettuce and/or chopped spinach.

I tried this today and it was pretty good. I still need to work on the spices a bit. It wasn't creamy enough so I took a portion of it and blended it with some water. I used the Sunny Paris seasoning (Penzey's). That was good. Next time I will add some mustard.
I ate it over chopped lettuce and squeezed on half a lemon to make it my version of "salty".
Thanks for sharing.
Hi Kristi, I think if you use ground mustard, like many of the recipes I saw called for, it thickens it some. I added that to my shopping list. I like sunny paris too! oh, good idea about blending some of the veggies to thicken. yeah, I'd like to work on the spices too. good idea about the lemon too.
I had this really good recipe from, of all places, the heart association cookbook, back when I ate meat. this looks like it:

so maybe oregano, tomato paste and dry sherry are the missing ingredients. (some would say, and the beef, ha).
