recipe...

So I once mentioned that when I started to be a vegetarian it was dificult for me. And as one I love faux meats and love veggie burgers, and have them many different ways..this is just one recipe I like


TOFU/TVP Burgers

celery-use like it an onion
1/2 part Tofu
1/2 part TVP
ground oatmeal- as binder
tamari
cilantro-chopped
parsley-chopped
hing
hickory salt
paprika
chili powder
oil

Optional: Roasted Sunflower Seeds or Ricotta Cheese

Rinse tofu with water and soak in water for 10 minutes changing water once to remove the funny taste. Remove from water, press all excess water out and crumble into a bowl. Put enough tamari in the bowl to slightly change color of tofu and give it a little seasoning and set aside.

Meanwhile, food process or dice celery and saute in oil with a hing. Place TVP in bowl and place a little water to moisten it. Add the TVP to sauteed celery mixture and heat until flavor is absorbed.

In a bowl combine TVP/Celery mixture with tofu, cilantro, parsley, optional ingredients and oatmeal-just enough to hold the patty together. Oil a tray. Form mixture into patty. Bake in 375 Oven for 20-30 minutes. Baste top with oil and bake an additional 10 minutes.
