Ingredients

350 g extra-firm tofu
1/3 cup vegan mayonnaise
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
2 tsp dijon mustard (smooth)
1/2 tsp black salt (or fine sea salt)
1/4 tsp ground turmeric
1 1/2 tbsp freshly chopped chives
sea salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Chop the tofu into small 1/2-inch cubes and set aside. (You don't need to press the tofu prior to using in this recipe).
In a small mixing bowl combine the mayonnaise, nutritional yeast, dijon mustard, black salt, and turmeric. Whisk to combine.
Add the tofu cubes to the mixing bowl and mash with a fork to combine everything into an egg salad consistency. Sprinkle with the chopped chives and sea salt and pepper to taste. Mix together.
Serve this vegan egg salad on its own, or scoop between two slices of bread for an egg salad sandwich with your favourite toppings.
