THE BEST TUNA SALAD



The Best Tuna Salad image

While we love many kinds of tuna salad, this classic version tops them all. The crispy celery and red onion give add zest and crunch, while mayonnaise and touch of mustard marry it all together. The lemon juice is optional as it's not traditional, but we strongly recommend it to brighten up the flavors of the final dish.

VEGAN TEMPEH SALAD



Vegan Tempeh Salad image

This is an adopted recipe I've not yet had the chance to try. Here's what the OP had to say about it: "I've also heard this referred to as "Vegan Tuna Salad." I absolutely love this salad! I'm not a vegetarian, let alone vegan, but this is fabulous. I've been buying it from Whole Foods Market in their Deli section (expensive little 8 ounce containers) so I came up with this by reading the ingredients listed on the container! I love it with tortilla chips..."

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

16 ounces soy tempeh

1/4 cup finely chopped celery
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1/4 cup finely diced red bell pepper
1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds
1/4 cup finely diced green pepper
1/4 cup scallion, sliced into little rings, only the white and very light parts
2 tablespoons tamari
2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf Italian parsley
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon finely minced fresh garlic
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dry dill weed

Steps:

  • Prepare the tempeh first breaking it into chunks and steaming it over boiling water for about 15 minutes.
  • Set aside and allow to cool.

  • Finely crumble the cooled tempeh into the bowl and combine with the chopped vegetables.

TEMPEH "CHICKEN" SALAD



Tempeh

For those of you who have never tried it, tempeh is a made from fermented soybeans that have been pressed into firm cakes. It has a "nutty" and meaty texture, and, like tofu, it absorbs flavors of surrounding ingredients really well. Tempeh is a very popular "meat" alternative for vegetarian cooks. The first step in this recipe has you poach the tempeh in boiling water, which mellows out the flavor a bit, and makes it a bit more digestible. This is yet another recipe from, my favorite: The Vegetarian Meat and Potatoes Cookbook.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 40m

Yield 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 ounces tempeh, cubed
1 stalk celery, minced
2 tablespoons red bell peppers, minced
1 large dill pickle, minced
2 -3 scallions, minced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 cup soy mayonnaise or 1/2 cup regular mayonnaise (more or less to taste)
1 tablespoon yellow mustard (spicy golden brown is nice too)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the cubed tempeh in a saucepan of boiling, salted water.
  • Reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 12 minutes, drain and set aside to cool.
  • I usually toss it in the fridge.
  • In a large bowl, combine the celery, pepper, pickle, scallion and parsley.
  • Run a knife through the cubed tempeh, just to give it a rough chop (optional, the cubes work fine too) Add chopped tempeh to the bowl, along with the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon, salt and pepper.
  • Fold everything together, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors combine.
  • This will keep covered in the fridge for 2-3 days.
  • This salad goes great on wheat toast, in a pita pocket, or in a lavash wrap.
