Tofu "chicken" Salad Sandwich

Submitted by Ernini

"Before I became vegetarian, I'd always loved chicken salad sandwiches, so I've been searching for a way to have something similar to that now that I am veg. This recipe is a mixture of many recipes I've found and just how I've been making it lately. Simple and easy to make with common ingredients. This recipe could also be Tofu "Egg" Salad by simply mashing the tofu instead of cubing it."

This was so much better then the tofu that I had 20 some years ago. The dijon mustard is a must. I also used Fat Free mayonnaise and did not miss the flavor or calories at all. I'm so glad I gave tofu another chance. Thank you for posting. Made for *New Kids On The Block 2009* game
