These homemade burgers cook up golden and crunchy on the outside with a slightly spicy, nutty flavor on the inside.  Serve them like hamburgers, on buns with ketchup, onion, lettuce, pickles, and mayonnaise...all the fixins you like.

Ingredients:

2 1/4    Cups walnuts
1           Pound, 3 ounces silken tofu, drained
2           Cups bread crumbs
2           Ribs celery, finely minced
1           Carrot, peeled and grated
1           Teaspoon cajun seasoning
3           Tablespoons of olive oil
3/4       Teaspoon salt

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Spread the walnuts on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until fragrant, about 10 minutes.  Remove from pan and set aside to cool.  When the nuts have cooled, transfer them to the container of a food processor and pulse until finely ground.  Add the tofu, bread crumbs, celery, carrot, seasoning, and salt; process until well combined.  Form the mixture into eight half inch-thick patties. 
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat and cook the burgers, turning them once, until golden on both sides, about 8 minutes.
