Saute the onio & garlic in oil until the onion begins

In a mixing bowl, combine tofu with the remaining

mushroom-herb mixture. Oil a 9" pan. Sprinkle half
the wheatgerm over the bottom of the pan. Spoon in
the tofu mixture & pat down to form an even layer.
Top with sliced tomatoes & sprinkle with the remaining
wheatgerm. Bake until set, about 40 minutes. Let
stand for about 15 minutes, cut into wedges & serve.
VARIATION: Replace thyme & rosemary with tarragon.
