If you're looking for a change, try this yummy tofu burger.
You can eat them as you would a hamburger (buns, tomato, lettuce, cheese...) but I like it on it's own.
It's even good cold or hot! Try mixing in cummin or hot peppers, yummy too!

Tofu Burgers (12 servings)

1 lbs firm tofu, crumbled
1 small carrot, grated
1/2 green pepper, finely chopped
1/2 onion, finely chopped
2 tsp vegetable oil
3 eggs, beat
2 tbsp whole wheat flour
2 tbsp soy sauce
1/4 cup parmesan
1/2 cup bread crumbs
salt & pepper to taste

Mix all ingredients then form into patties. Add oil to frying pan and fry until golden brown.

    I love to cook and this is exactly what I am working towrads. After surviving Leukemia, though prety healthy eater in general... I am committed to reducing the meats (all) and replacing with veggies or nuts in my recipes. Thanks for sharing this recipe. I would love to get more. Friend me if you'd like.
    I am search of recipes to keep me interested int he kitchen..and at the dining table...that will keep me eating light and fresh without compromising protein for enegery.

    These sound great!
    Did you drain the tofu first? I would like to try this recipe and want it to have the right texture.
    Thanks!

    Yes, I emptied the 'juice' from the packages, put the tofu in a large bowl and crumbled it with my hands :)
    It's almost fun.. like playing in dirt when we were young:happy:

    Thanks, Soooze, I use tofu a lot and really love it. Can't wait to try this recipe! When I make roasted or sauteed tofu, I cut it into little squares and squeeze them with a kitchen towel. Or sometimes I cut them into slices and tuck them in a kitchen towel and lay a dictionary on top until it's really dry (this helps to soak up a marinade). I probably should have asked you if it was "pressed" instead of "drained", but you answered my question anyway :) I also make a tofu ricotta, and I do it the way you described for this recipe. Thanks for the reply! I'll try to post after I make these next week.
