Cooking Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Drain tofu well and cut into large cubes. Place tofu into a food processor with garlic and grind until well combined. Place tofu mixture into a bowl and mix with the ricotta, egg, parmesan and slowly add breadcrumbs until a workable consistency forms. Mix well and add salt and fresh pepper. Form balls and make sure they hold together well and roll in the remaining breadcrumbs.
  • Grease a baking sheet and place the balls on the sheet. Bake for 35 minutes, until firm, turning once halfway through.
  • Place a tofu ball on bottom half of each slider bun, top with tomato sauce and a slice of mozzarella cheese. Top each with top half of slider bun.
