                        Orange Marinade:
     1/4  cup           apple cider vinegar
   2      tablespoons   lower-sodium soy sauce
   1      teaspoon      minced fresh ginger
     1/4  cup           undiluted orange juice concentrate -- thawed
   2      tablespoons   lemon juice
   1      pound         firm frozen tofu -- thawed
                        excess water squeezed out,
                        OR 12 oz tempeh -- steamed
   8      medium        mushrooms
   1                    green pepper -- in 1" squares
   1                    onion -- in 8 wedges
   1      medium        zucchini -- in 1" pieces
   8                    cherry tomatoes

Use any of the marinades given below, or substitute your favorite homemade
or bottled marinade.  Yield: 4 servings.   Serving size: 1 skewer

Whisk together all marinade ingredients.  Set aside.  Cut tofu or tempeh
into 1" cubes.  Place them into a covered dish or zippered plastic bag.
Add all the vegetables except the cherry tomatoes to the bag and pour the
marinade over them.  Marinate in the refrigerator at least 4 hours.
Carefully stir or turn the zippered bag over a few times while marinating.

Divide the marinated ingredients evenly, along with the cherry tomatoes,
and thread on four skewers.  Place under a broiler or on the grill.  Cook,
turning and brushing with marinade a few times, about 8 minutes or until
vegetables are tender crisp.
