Ingredients
2 beets (2" dia, sphere) Beets, boiled 1 medium (2-1/2" dia) Onions, raw 8 clove Garlic 392 grams (1/5 block) Tofu Extra Firm Sprouts non GMO (rg) 3 tsp Braggs Liquid Aminos (by VEGAN_REINA) 2 serving Salt: Morton, Lite Salt Mixture, 1/4 tsp (1.4g)/serving 2 tbsp *Flax Seed Meal (ground flax) .16 cup Oats, Quaker (1 cup dry oats)
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Wash and trim the beets, and wrap each one in foil. Trim onion and wrap it in foil. Wrap unpeeled garlic in foil. Place all on a baking sheet and roast 50-60 min. Remove from oven and allow to cool until vegetables are easy to handle. (All of this can be done ahead and kept in the refrigerator until ready to make.

While vegetables are cooling, mash the tofu and stir in the remaining ingredients.

When onions and garlic are cool enough, peel the onion and chop finely or use a food processor. Squeeze the garlic from the cloves. Add both to the tofu and mix well. Peel the skins from the beets under running water, and shred. Drain off any liquid from the beets and add them to the tofu, stirring until the mixture is a uniform, bright color.

Shape into patties about 3 inches wide and 1 inch thick. Place on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper or silicon baking mat. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to stand for a few minutes before removing with a spatula and serving.
