Vegan 'egg' salad

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
10½ ounce Mori-Nu (1% fat; extra firm) silken tofu (1 box)
2 tablespoons Vegan lowfat mayonaise (up to 3)
2 tablespoons Minced celery
1 tablespoon Minced green onion or chives (up to 2)
2 teaspoons Nutritional yeast

¼ teaspoon Ground coriander
¼ teaspoon Curry powder (optional)
¼ teaspoon Ground cumin (optional)
1 pinch Garlic powder
Fresh cracked black pepper; to taste

Directions

Drain the tofu, and crumble it into a medium-sized bowl. Add the remaining ingredients, and mix well with a fork (mashing it, if necessary, to create the desired consistency). Adjust seasonings to taste. Chill overnight before serving, to allow flavours to blend.

Optional additions: 1 t prepared white horseradish and vegan Worcestershire sauce (for 'deviled eggs')

¼ cup chopped pimiento

Substitutions: in place of the mayo; 1 t apple cider vinegar mixed with 1 t sweetener of your choice (recipe can then be thinned with a little nonfat vegan milk, if necessary)
