Beans And Franks Pot Pie

1. In 4-qt Dutch oven or possibly flameproof casserole, heat oil over medium heat. Add in onion and cook, stirring often, till softened, about 8 min. Stir in beans, tofu dogs, mustard and salt and pepper to taste. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, while you prepare topping.
2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In medium bowl, mix flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking pwdr and baking soda. Cut in butter with pastry blender or possibly two knives till mix resembles coarse crumbs.
