Great, easy recipe, but I varied it because I didn't have some ingredients on hand. I used diced red pepper instead of mushrooms and a tbsp of ketchup with chili powder and cayenne pepper instead of chili sauce. I served them with sweet and sour sauce and my kids couldn't get enough - didn't even realize it was tofu!
