Instructions

Sautee onion over medium heat in olive oil. Add spinach. When spinach has released its liquid, switch to high heat and add in parsley. Cook until most of the water is gone.
Mash tofu and flavorings together with a fork. Unroll properly thawed fillo. Trim off about an inch all the way around. Cover it up with a dry dishtowel to keep it from drying out.
Take a sheet of fillo and lay it in a lightly oiled 9x13 pan. Brush it lightly all over with margarine. Take a deep breath and put in seven more layers, brushing each. Put in the filling, spreading it all the way to the edges. Eight more layers, margarine on the top, roll the edges down. Take a sharp knife and cut into squares.
Preheat the oven to about 375°F. Bake for about 45 minutes.
