TOFU AND VEGETABLE PATTIES
You could make these patties bite sized for a vegetarian canapé or simply one large one - like a frittata with a twist. You could serve the patties in a burger bun with ketchup also. From Good Food magazine June 2011.

TOFU BURGERS
This recipe uses tofu that has been frozen for 72 hours and then quickly defrosted. Onion, celery and cheese make these burgers delicious. This is a family favorite at the Silverwolfs' den. Serve in place of meat as a main entree or place on a bun along with your favorite toppings: lettuce, onion, tomato, mayo, etc. These burgers can also be baked in an oven preheated at 350 degrees for 30 minutes rather than frying.

Steps:
- Place tofu in freezer 72 hours ahead of time. To thaw, fill a large saucepan with water and bring to a simmer. Leave tofu in package and place in water for about 20 minutes.
- While tofu is thawing, heat 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a small skillet. Saute onion and celery until soft and lightly browned. Place in a medium bowl and set aside.
- When tofu is thawed, squeeze out excess water. Chop tofu finely and place in bowl with onion and celery. Mix in egg, cheese, salt and pepper until thoroughly combined.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and pour in 1/2 cup vegetable oil (oil should be 1/4 inch deep). Drop tofu mixture into pan in 6 equal portions. Flatten with a spatula to form patties. Fry for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, until golden.

TOFU-MUSHROOM BURGERS (VEGETARIAN TIMES)
I wanted a tofu burger that didn't come out of the freezer section of a grocery store. This recipe came out of a 1997 issue of Vegetarian times and it is one that I have used repeatedly. The author suggests serving these burgers on a garlic bun with hoisin sauce, tomato slices, and chopped cilantro but I have always served them on a whole wheat bun with sauteed mushrooms, sauteed onions, fresh spinach, tomato slices, and a creamy dijon.

Steps:
- In a medium skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add garlic, and cook until golden. Add mushrooms, tofu, and curry paste, and cook, stirring once or twice, until mushrooms are softened. Remove vegetables with slotted spoon. If any liquid remains, cook uncovered until thickened; add to vegetables and allow to cool.
- After everything has cooled, combine vegetables, tofu, egg, and rice in a food processor until blended (I use a potato masher since I do not have a food processor). Transfer to large bow and mix in 1/2 cup breadcrumbs to form a consistency which will allow patties to be formed. Season with salt and pepper.
- Shape mixture into 3 inch patties (1/2 an inch thick), add extra bread crumbs if needed to hod patties together.
- Prepare grill or preheat broiler. I put them on a pam-sprayed health grill for about 4-6 minutes, or until both sides are lightly browned. They can also be broiled on a lightly greased broiler pan or cookie sheet for about 6-8 minutes per side. Broil about 3-5 inches from the heat.

Tips:
- Use extra-firm tofu: This will help the patties hold their shape better.
- Press the tofu before using: This will remove excess moisture and help the patties be more firm.
- Grate or finely chop the vegetables: This will help them blend better with the tofu.
- Use a food processor to combine the ingredients: This will make the patties smooth and even.
- Be careful not to overmix the ingredients: Overmixing can make the patties tough.
- Form the patties into 1-inch thick patties: This will help them cook evenly.
- Cook the patties over medium heat: This will help them cook through without burning.
- Serve the patties immediately: This will ensure that they are hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
Tofu and vegetable patties are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional meat patties. They are packed with protein, fiber, and vitamins, and they are low in calories and fat. They can be enjoyed on their own, or they can be used as a topping for salads, sandwiches, or wraps. With a little creativity, you can make tofu and vegetable patties that everyone will love.
