Chef's Tip
Before cooking the tofu burgers, you can brush both sides with some of the barbecue glaze and then cook as directed in Step 2. Your burgers will be nicely caramelized outside and soft inside. Serve the remaining glaze on the side.
Grill It
Prepare a medium-hot fire in a grill. Set the tofu burgers on the grill directly over the heat and cook, turning once, until lightly charred and heated through, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep the tomato; make the kale slaw

  • Cut away the core from the tomato; cut the tomato crosswise into ¼-inch-thick slices. Set aside for garnish.
In a large bowl, stir together the coleslaw dressing base and 2 tablespoons [¼ cup] oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the kale, carrots, and dried cranberries and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Let stand, stirring occasionally, while you prepare the rest of the meal.

2

Cook the burgers; toast the buns

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] oil until hot but not smoking. Add the tofu burgers and cook, turning once, until lightly browned and heated through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out the pan. Place the buns, cut sides down, in the pan and cook over medium-high heat until lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Alternatively, toast them in a toaster oven.

Serve

Place the bun bottoms, cut sides up, on individual plates. Top each with a burger, as much BBQ glaze as you like, and the tomato slices. Close with the bun tops. Serve the kale slaw and any remaining BBQ glaze on the side.
