Ingredients:

Serving

1/3 cup finely chopped fresh basil
2 tbsp dijon mustard
2 tbsp honey
2 tsp grated lemon rind
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp extravirgin olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
4 garlic cloves, minced and divided
1 lb firm or extrafirm tofu, drained
cooking spray
1/3 cup finely chopped pitted kalamata olives
3 tbsp reduced-fat sour cream
3 tbsp light mayonnaise
6 (1 1/2-oz) hamburger buns
6 (1/4-inch- thick) slices tomato
1 cup trimmed watercress

Directions:

Combine first 8 ingredients and 3 garlic cloves in a small bowl. Cut tofu crosswise into 6 slices. Pat each square dry with paper towels. Place tofu slices on a jelly-roll pan. Brush both sides of tofu slices with lemon juice mixture; reserve remaining juice mixture. Let tofu stand 1 hour.
Prepare grill.
Place tofu slices on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill for 3 minutes on each side. Brush tofu with the reserved juice mixture.
Combine remaining 1 minced garlic clove, chopped olives, sour cream, and mayonnaise in a small bowl; stir well. Spread about 1 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise mixture over bottom half of each hamburger bun; top each serving with 1 tofu slice, 1 tomato slice, about 2 tablespoons watercress, and top half of bun.
