1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 ripe tomatoes, sliced
1/3 cup chopped celery
1/3 cup chopped fresh mushrooms

In a large bowl, combine onion, celery, garlic powder, salt, pepper, tomatoes, celery and mushrooms. Mix well.
Heat oil in a large pot or skillet over medium heat. Mix together almonds and olive oil, and mix into the vegetable mixture. Stirring constantly, coat well.
