TOFU BALLS
     TOFU-BALLS - Vegetable and tofu
     This recipe comes from the New Recipes from Moosewood 
Res-
     taurant cookbook.  They said that these vegetarian 
balls are
     "one of our most popular standard lunch items". 
 I was
     skeptical, so I gave it a try and indeed, they 
are quite
     tasty.
INGREDIENTS (3 dozen)
     3 Tbsp    vegetable oil
