Tofu
With a tablespoon of mustard to give it a yellowish hue, this tofu egg salad recipe really looks and tastes like egg salad. Serve on bread with lettuce for a vegan "egg" salad sandwich.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Total Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 block firm tofu, drained
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise (use Vegenaise for a vegan version)
  • 1/3 cup sweet relish
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 stalk celery, diced
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp mustard
  • dash paprika for garnish (optional)

Preparation:

In a medium-sized bowl, mash the tofu with a fork. Add remaining ingredients and stir together until well combined. Sprinkle with paprika for garnish, if desired.

Serve on bread with lettuce for an "egg" salad sandwich, or spread on crackers for a casual hors d'ouerves.

This was amazing. I didn't have the celery or lemon juice, made it anyway, didn't regret it. The onion powder and garlic powder really flavor the tofu well, and while it doesn't really have an ""egg"" flavor, the texture and constistancy is the same as traditional egg salad.
