Special- K Patties 

• 2 packages firm tofu (or 16 oz cottage cheese)
• 1 cup ground pecan meal
• 6 cups Special K cereal
• 1 package onion soup mix, dry
• 4 eggs, beaten (may use Egg Beaters or throw away yolks to reduce cholesterol intake)
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 4 Tbsp butter

1. Sauté onion in butter until soft.
2. Crumble tofu in a large bowl (we use Mori Nu Extra Firm).
3. Add onion, cereal, eggs, pecan meal, and onion soup mix to tofu (or cottage cheese) and mix thoroughly.
4. Let stand for several minutes, then shape into patties of equal size, about 3/4 inch thick.
5. Place on ungreased cookie sheet and freeze; when firm place in zip top plastic bags for freezer storage (makes about 12-14).
6. To cook, place frozen patties on lightly greased cookie sheet and bake at 375° for 20 minutes; turn over and bake about 15-20 minutes more, until crispy and browned.
7. Serve as you would any hamburger—on a bun with all the "fixins," or smothered in a mushroom gravy sauce, or just plain.
