Eggless Egg Salad No Tofu Recipes

THE BEST VEGAN "EGG" SALAD

Steps:

• Remove the Tofu from its package and press for 10-15 minutes. Then, the Tofu to a clean, dry towel and wrap it up while you prepare the "dressing."
• To make the Mayo "dressing", add all of the remaining ingredients, except for the Chives, to a high-speed blender and process until thick and creamy.
• Uncover the Tofu and use a knife to roughly chop it; I cut mine into thin strips, then on random diagonals to make a variety of chunks. Gently press another clean towel on top of the chopped Tofu to remove any excess moisture, then transfer to a bowl. Add in the Chives and dressing, and fold until well incorporated.
• Add more Black Salt and Pepper to taste, then serve as desired. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 7 days; this recipe will not freeze well.

VEGAN EGG SALAD SANDWICH

Steps:

• To make the vegan egg salad: chop the tofu into a small cube. Add the tofu to a large bowl along with the vegan mayonnaise, nutritional yeast, yellow mustard, green onions, black salt, and turmeric. Gently mix. If desired add table salt and pepper to taste.
• To make vegan egg salad sandwiches: toast the bread if desired. Layer 4 slices of bread with a lettuce leaf and then follow with a generous serving of the vegan egg salad. Top with the remaining slices of bread and serve.

VEGAN EGG SALAD

Steps:

• Drain the tofu by taking it out of the container and covering both the top and bottom of the tofu with a clean absorbent towel (a dish towel works fine or you can use paper towels too). Press on the top of the tofu or set something heavy to help speed up the process of removing the excess liquid. (This is a lot easier than boiling eggs if you ask me!)
• Use your hands to crumble the tofu into small bits into a lidded bowl.
• Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl. Stir to combine.
• Pour the mustard mixture in with the crumbled tofu. Stir to combine. Chill before serving to let the seasonings settle in.

EGGLESS SALAD

Steps:

• Place the tofu in a mixing bowl and mash with a wooden spoon. Mix in the remaining ingredients and combine well. Chill slightly, then serve on a bed of mixed greens or as a sandwich.

EGGLESS EGG SALAD

Steps:

• Slice one-third of the tofu and mash in a bowl.
• Add the other ingredients in whatever order you wish.
• I like to slice and cube the remaining tofu so it resembles the egg salad I grew up with: kind of chunky with the yolks fully incorporated.
• Enjoy on rye bread or on crispy crackers.
• Bon appetite!
