Mushrooms, spinach, brown rice and tofu are combined in this burger that even non-vegetarians should enjoy. Firm silken tofu in the small paper box usually found in the produce section of the supermarket is used in this recipe. Drain the tofu well on paper towels before crumbling it. Nonfat egg substitute and nonfat mozzarella cheese act as binders, so the burger holds together when it”s pan-fried.
