These burgers are quick and easy to make. The ingredients can be mixed in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. Form and cook the patties as needed. Or you can make and cook all the patties at once, then store them in the refrigerator and reheat them in a toaster oven or microwave.

Ingredients

    1 lb. firm tofu, mashed
    ½ cup rolled oats
    1 slice whole-wheat bread, finely crumbled
    ½ cup finely chopped onion, or 2 tablespoons onion powder
    1 ½ tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley

Mix tofu, oats, bread, chopped onion, parsley, soy sauce, basil, oregano, cumin, and garlic powder and knead for a minute or so, until mixture holds together. Shape into patties.
