Instructions

  1. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Add carrots, scallions and garlic; sauté until carrots are tender, about 4 minutes. Add tofu and sauté for 1 minute more; transfer mixture to a medium-size bowl.
  2. Stir in bread crumbs, teriyaki sauce, egg whites, salt and pepper. Shape into 4 equal-sized patties, pressing firmly with your hands.
  3. Wipe out sauté; pan and coat it with cooking spray again. Fry patties on both sides until crisp and brown, about 3 minutes per side. Serve on rolls.
