Tofuna Salad


Even though Autumn is here, we had a few warm days here in NJ, and I felt salad was in order. Like I said on Tuesday, I've added small amounts of soy back into my diet and I've been okay with it. I came across a tofuna salad recipe that looked really good, so I made it - with my own alterations, of course. Dennis and I both really loved it, so  it will definitely be back in my meal rotation.







Tofuna Salad
serves 2-4
1 container firm organic tofu, frozen
1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon mustard
1 tablespoon tamari
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
2 celery stalks, diced
1/4 cup onion, diced
1/4 cup red bell pepper, diced
1 teaspoon kelp
1 teaspoon dried dill

1.  Remove tofu from freezer. Allow to thaw. Squeeze the water out of it.
2.  Crumble tofu, add remaining ingredients and mix. Chill for a few hours so tofu can absorb the flavors. Season to taste.
3.  Serve as a salad or on sandwiches.

Feel free to add or subtract ingredients to your own liking!

  1. This looks great! We generally buy the Vegan Tuna at Whole Foods, and its pretty pricey, so having a recipe for this will be a real saver for us! Thank you so much Veggie Girl!

  2. You can also mash up chickpeas and add the same ingredients. http://girliegirlarmy.com/blog/20090909/mercury-tuna-free-sandwiches-that-will-knock-your-socks-off/
