RE: lunch? sandwich filling recipe

[Guest guest]

I'm not sure where I got this recipe, but it is a family favorite. It

makes 4 - 6 sandwiches.

 

Eggless Egg and Garden Veggie Salad

 

1 pound firm tofu, patted dry

1/2 cup soy mayonnaise

1-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice

1 teaspoon onion powder

3/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon turmeric

1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/2 cup carrots, shredded

1/2 cup red bell pepper, diced

1/2 cup celery, diced

1/4 cup green onions, sliced

1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley

 

Wrap the block of tofu in a clean, lint-free towel, place in a colander,

and balance a large plate over the top of it. Place a large can or

something heavy on top of the plate and leave the tofu to sit for 30

minutes (be sure to put the colander in the sink or place a bowl beneath

it to catch the excess water). This pressing technique makes the texture

of the tofu much firmer. When done, use your fingers to crumble the

pressed tofu into a bowl. Add the soy mayonnaise, lemon juice, onion

powder, garlic powder, salt, turmeric, and pepper, and stir well to

thoroughly coat the tofu. Add the carrots, red pepper, celery, green

onions, and parsley, and stir well to combine. Cover and chill for 1

hour to allow the flavors to blend. The color of the eggless egg salad

will turn more yellow as it chills.
