Ingredients
- 1 lb tofu drained and pressed, extra firm
- 1 cup celery finely chopped
- ½ cup onion red, finely chopped
- ¼ cup almonds chopped, silvered blanched
- ¼ cup raisins
- 6 Tablespoons vegan mayonnaise
- 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 Tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
- ½ teaspoons salt sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon dill
- 1 pinch Turmeric
- 2 Tablespoons parsley chopped, fresh
- 2 Tablespoons dill chopped, fresh
Instructions
- Prep tofu: Crumble tofu into small pieces in a medium to large size bowl.
- Combine ingredients: Mix celery, onions and almonds with tofu.
- Make dressing: In a separate bowl whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, olive oil, pepper, salt, dill and turmeric. Toss fresh parsley and dill on top and give the mixture another stir to combine everything.
- Combine tofu + dressing: Add dressing to the tofu mixture and stir well to combine.
- Serve: Enjoy immediately. Leftovers should last 3-5 days in the fridge.
Notes
- Raisins – Not a fan of raisins? You could substitute for grapes instead.
- Red onion – Sometimes red onions can be a bit pungent. If this is the case try soaking them in cold water after you cut them for ten minutes and then drain. Or you can swap them for yellow onion if you prefer those.
- Additional mix-ins – Feel free to get creative with your mix-ins. This is just a baseline suggestion. You can always switch it up… I often do! Carrots and avocado would be great additions to this recipe.
