New Recipe! Healthy Lunch or Sophisticated Appetizer

Looking for a new, healthy lunch option? What about a sophisticated appetizer? You can put this Tofu Egg Salad on whole grain bread, a grain-free wrap (like Blue Mountain basil coconut wraps) for lunch…or put it in a pepper bowl (ooh – what about stuffed into a baby pepper?!) for a sophisticated appetizer or first course. Let me know how you use it!

This is a preview recipe from the upcoming Healthy Family Healthy You book – in final process!

1/8 tsp smoked paprika

Drain tofu and press if desired.

Put vegan mayo and all spices into a medium sized mixing bowl. Mix well. Add scallion and celery and mix again. Add tofu. Break up with a fork and mix all ingredients gently. You want it to mix well but keep it the consistency of egg salad, rather than paste!
