Tofu Sandwich Spread

Submitted by Sylectra

"This recipe is fast and flexible to your individual taste buds. Pressing a block of extra firm tofu can really improve the texture of the tofu in recipes like this. If you are vegan, try this with vegan mayonnaise – it will be just as good."

 

• Ready In: 10mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 1 lb extra firm tofu
• 1⁄2 red onion, diced
• 1 apple, peeled and diced
• 1⁄2 cup chopped pecans
• 1 teaspoon curry
• 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄8 teaspoon pepper
• 1 dash dill weed
• 1 dash cayenne pepper

directions

1. Start by pressing the tofu – place the block on one dinner plate and put another plate on top, upside down. Add some heavy items to the top of the stack like a couple of cast iron frying pans. Allow to sit for at least 20 minutes, dumping water into sink a few times during the process.
2. Meanwhile, prepare other ingredients as directed and mix all together. Remove the tofu from the plate and cut it into ½-inch cubes. Add to the mixture and gently stir until ingredients are just combined. Serve on toasted wheat bread or in a wheat pita with sprouts.

This was very good, much like egg salad without the mayonnaise, which it doesn't need. I never would have thought of apples as an addition, but it was delicious! Thanks for posting.
