1. Drain the tofu and slice thinly. Place on a paper towel-lined
baking sheet and a couple of cans to weight down. Let drain for 45
minutes. 2. In a nonstick skillet heat 2 teaspoons oil over medium
heat. Add the onion, carrot, cabbage and garlic; saute 5 minutes.
Cool slightly. 3. Process the drained tofu in a food processor until
creamy. Add the flour, yeast, ketchup, parsley, sesame seeds, taco
seasoning, cayenne, salt and pepper; process until smooth. Add the
vegetables and process until the vegetables are finely chopped and
incorporated. 4. Form the mixture into 4 patties and dredge in wheat
germ. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium
heat. Add the burgers and cook 5 minutes. Turn and add another
teaspoon oil; continue cooking 4 minutes, or until heated through.
(Serve on toasted buns with condiments.) Note: Nutritional yeast can
be found in health food stores. If unavailable substitute 2
tablespoons wheat germ.
