The hero of this dish is the sauteed mushrooms. I love mushrooms and am always on a look out for ways to eat them.
For this recipe, I used simple ingredients that are easily available in our kitchen most of the time. Yet the taste was outstanding. With the addition of sauteed mushrooms the taste of this decadent burger increased ten times. In consequence to its deliciousness I already made another batch in just 3 days and refrigerated the patties so whenever we crave for it I can just pull out the patties from the refrigerator and fix burgers for my family be it a weekday or a weekend.
How to make Tofu Kidney Beans Sun Dried Tomato Burger with sauteed Mushroom.

- Next, I heated oil and seasoned it with herbs and spices.
- Then, I sauteed mushrooms in it until it was well cooked and released its juice.
- Lastly, I assembled all the ingredients between the burger buns and enjoyed it heartily with my family.

I don’t know why tofu gets such a bad rap, it’s great! 🙂 I love the addition of mushrooms here. We eat lots of different kinds of tofu dishes but haven’t tried making burgers yet. Looks like we will soon!
