Vegan Egg Spread with Chives
Nika’s Pick15g protein
A creamy vegan spread that tastes exactly like egg salad! The secret lies in tofu and plant-based mayo, and if you add pickles, it becomes absolutely heavenly.
Ingredients
Spread
- 180 g firm tofu
- 120 g vegan mayonnaise
- 15 g onion (finely minced)
- 5 g chives (chopped)
- 1 1/2 tsp kala namak
- 1 tsp nutritional yeast
- 1/4 tsp turmeric
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 100 g pickled cucumbers (diced)
Contains: soy
How to make it
- Remove excess water from the tofu by drying it with a towel or in a tofu press.
- Crumble the tofu by hand or with a fork in a bowl.
- Add the mayonnaise, finely chopped onion, nutritional yeast, and black pepper to the crumbled tofu. Mix everything to a smooth consistency. If you're not a fan of large onion pieces, I recommend using a blender to blend the vegan egg spread with the onion, or alternatively replace the onion with a larger amount of chives.
- Before serving, season the vegan egg spread with black salt, add chopped chives and turmeric - turmeric will give it a yellow color, but be careful with the amount so you don't taste it too strongly.
- Finally, fold in sliced pickles. Add pickles to taste - I add about 2-3 large ones.
- You can eat the spread immediately, but if you can resist, let it rest for a few hours in the refrigerator.
