I made these last night and ate one for todays lunch.

Okie dokie, you did it. You found the tofu sort of recipe I will actually try

and probably love. This sounds great! Now to sneak it onto the dinner menu

without the husband person discovering what it is made of. Thanks! Jeanne in

We must be thinking alike Fiona!

I just made a mock crab cake recipe today

for lunch. I had a few zucchinis I had to

use up so I went digging through the files.

I used a recipe posted by Debbie over on the

Veg Group with a few changes and they were

awesome.

This recipe below sounds really good, too.

Thanks for sharing it.
