I love tofu burgers.
These are a smaller version, and they look adorable.
Perfect for lunch or snack.
First, I bake buns.
This is me impatiently waiting for buns to be ready.
So happy with the result.
And I make tofu burgers.
These are so easy to make, yet, delicious!!
I like tofu burgers better compared to bean-based ones, because tofu burgers (at least this one) tend to have the texture that I prefer; bean burgers tend to be a bit too mushy to me.
These burgers are tasty as they are, but this time I coated them with Sriracha teriyaki sauce. Yum.
And then I slice the veggies I want in our burger.
These were so good.
Definitely one of my favorite sandwiches to make and share with my hubby.
You can probably get a better idea of how small these burgers are in this picture.
Well, just to let you know Terry was working on his car right before lunch, so he looks like a hard-working man; and he is!
