- Orange you glad it’s not egg salad
Ok, so clearly no eggs were used in this recipe, but I swear you’d never know if you tasted it. Not only does this recipe take minimal time and effort, but it is very versatile, it can be eaten in a sandwich, on a bed of lettuce, or plain.
Ingredients
– 1/2 cup silken tofu
– 1/2 cup shredded carrots (if you have a juicer, use carrot pulp)
– 1/2 cup cabbage (or coleslaw mix)
– 1 tbsp honey mustard
– 2 tbsp vegan mayonnaise (I’m a Nasoya fan myself)
– 1/2 tsp paprika
– salt & pepper to taste
Once everything has been combined in a bowl (or blender if you are lazy aren’t in the mood for an arm workout), just mix until it’s the consistency you want.
The orange hue is the best part (gives your skin that extra glow without UV ray exposure or self tanner…and who doesn’t like a free tan?).
I’m not sure how, but this really reminds me of egg salad. Also fabulous, is that I don’t have to worry about consuming a year’s worth of cholesterol in each bite! Vegan goodness for your tummy and healthy for your arteries (you can get the nurse out of the ICU, but you can never get the ICU out of the nurse…).
On a bed of spinach or sandwich thins. It’s awesome. Enjoy!
hahaha i like the third title!
Mmm looks great!
Ha, I wonder if I could sneak this by the carnivores here and tell them it really IS egg salad…

My “egg salad” recipe is different. I think it’s quite good:
1 can chickpeas drained and smashed
1/4c vegan mayo
2 tbsp mustard
2 tbsp relish
1 chopped celery stalk (or green onion)
Pepper to taste
Really good on toasted bread or in a pita 🙂
given my love for chickpeas, i think i will have to give this guy a shot 🙂 THANKS!!
Looks yummy!
