Happy Patties

 

From The American Vegetarian Cookbook by Marilyn Diamond These tend

to go fast. They are great plain with Thanksgiving sides or on buns

with all the fixin's.

 

1 cup firm tofu

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/2 cup minced green onions

2 cups finely grated green cabbage, optional

1 cup finely grated carrots

1/2 cup flour

1/4 cup nutritional yeast

1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning

 

1. Heat the oil in a skillet and briefly sauté the green onions.

2. Add the grated cabbage (if using) and carrot and cook for 4-5

more minutes, until soft. Remove from heat and set aside.

3. Preheat the oven to 350° F.

4. Cream the tofu in a food processor. Add the flour, yeast, soy

sauce, baking powder and poultry seasoning. Process until smooth.

5. Add the sautéed vegetables and pulse a few times, just to

combine (or combine by hand). Stir in the green onions.

6. Spoon 1/3 cup of mixture in dollops onto a greased baking

sheet.

7. Flatten to 1/4 - 1/2 inch patties and shape into neat rounds.

8. Bake for 15 minutes, then turn over each patty and bake an

additional 10 minutes.
