Description

The perfect vegetarian version of “tuna” salad, using 5-grain tempeh instead of tuna. (Also vegan-friendly!)

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces, weight 5-grain Tempeh, Crumbled
  • 1 whole Medium Stalk Celery, Finely Diced
  • 2 whole Green Onions, White And Green Parts, Thinly Sliced
  • 2 Tablespoons Minced Fresh Parsley
  • ¼ teaspoons Onion Powder
  • ¼ teaspoons Garlic Powder
  • ¼ teaspoons Paprika
  • ⅛ teaspoons Salt
  • ⅛ teaspoons Black Pepper
  • ¾ teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
  • 5 Tablespoons Light Mayonnaise

Preparation

In a medium-sized bowl, stir together all ingredients except the mayo. Then stir in enough mayo so it comes together into a creamy consistency. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper as desired.

Refrigerate until serving, then eat the salad any way you’d eat tuna salad—as a sandwich, as a melt with cheese, on top of salad greens, tossed with cooked pasta or as a spread for crackers.

*If you want to make this salad vegan, omit the Worcestershire sauce and use tamari sauce instead; reduce the amount of salt if desired. Also, make sure to use a vegan mayo.

YUM! What a great alternative to the norm of tuna or egg salad. Sounds delicious and love the idea of using tempeh!
