tofu chik'n salad was: recipe for shy....Tofu and Two Bean Chili

[Guest guest]

Jenni,

I'd love to have your chicken salad recipe. I have some tofu in the

freezer just waiting for me to make something with it. I think that

this would be a great dish to take to a potluck, perhaps sitting on a

bed of spinach?

it is perfect for that!

 

I take the tofu and thaw it, then steam it.. then let it cool

 

squeeze as much water out of it as you can.. then tear up the tofu (I

just 'shred' it with a fork)

add about 1/3 cup of chopped red ( purple) onions

2 tbsp nutritional yeast

Parsley (1 tbsp.. but one time I tossed in a whole bunch more and it

was still tasty!)

thyme... maybe 1/2 tsp

garlic powder .. 1/2 tsp

salt & pepper.. 1/4 tsp or to taste.. all measurements are

approximate...

 

and vegenaise, or your favorite vegan mayo. just spoon it in and mix

everything making it as wet as you'd like it to be..

 

this is delicious on bread, crackers, celery sticks, pitas, wrapped in

lettuce, or by the spoon full.. it's easy, and yummy, and tastes even

better the second day.!

 

=)

enjoy!
