Adapted from the Complete Book of Greek Cooking by Salaman. Feel free to substitute Egg Beaters® or equivalent. When tomatoes are not easily available, use canned instead. (My garden is so small - 3 tomato plants only, that I hate "wasting" a fresh tomato in a recipe where it'll be cooked down anyway, so I often use canned tomatoes.)
