Grilled Lemon-Basil Tofu Burgers
Randy Mayor

Protein-Rich Soy

Tofu makes a filling and tasty burger! This vegetarian protein source is full of heart-healthy fats and, like all veggies, is cholesterol-free, yet it still provides your muscles with high-quality protein. (This recipe contains 10.5 grams.) Fresh tomatoes and peppery watercress top off this sandwich, adding flavor plus small amounts of vitamins A and C.
