Ingredients

Preparation Instructions

Sandwich the tofu between two plates and rest a heavy weight on the top plate. Press for about 15 minutes; then drain the expressed liquid from the bottom plate. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan and saute the onions, carrots, peppers, oregano, basil, and dill for about 7 minutes, until the vegetables are just tender. Crumble the pressed tofu into a large bowl. Stir in the walnuts, bread crumbs, tahini, miso, soy sauce, and mustard, if using. Add the sauteed vegetables and mix well. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Generously oil a baking sheet. Using about 3/4 cup of burger mix per burger, form eight patties by hand and place them on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake for about 30 minutes, until the burgers are firm and browned. Toast a thick slice of whole wheat bread, top with lettuce, then the burger, then a slice of tomato and pour homemade Easy Russian Dressing over the whole thing. Yum!
