Egg Salad Sandwich

UGH!!! Before I begin with these recipes, I just need to take a deep breath and relax. I am currently a student and for my degree I am required to take a Psychology course. Tonight, our discussion question was "Should animals have equal rights?" Of course most people took the approach of "no silly, animals can't vote!" Okay well this isn't funny, clearly animals should not have the right to vote. Having the right to live fully and have the rights that apply to them? YES! Do animals have the capability to be scared, happy, sad, angry? YES! Any different from us? I think not. Babies can't talk. They have the ability to be sad, happy, angry, and scared. Should they have rights? Most of you will be appauled at the fact that I am comparing a child's rights with an animal.. but yes, it is one in the same. Amen.

Egg Salad Sandwich

Ingredients:

*1/2 cup medium or firm tofu

* 2-3 tablespoons of vegan mayonnaise ( I LOVE Veganaise)

* 1/4 teaspoon turmeric

* 1 tablespoon celery, finely diced

* 1 teaspoon green onion, finely diced

* dash of pepper

* 1/4 teaspoon mustard (optional, but I love mustard)

~~ In a small bowl, mash together the tofu, mayonnaise and turmeric. Mash the tofu to your consistancy desired. I personally like small chunks. Stir in the celery, onions, pepper, and mustard if you are using it. Spread it on some bread!

You can also use, sprouts, lettuce, grated carrots, or annyyytthing else!!!

This will fool the biggest egg lovers!

p.s. Eggs are often the hardest to replace for someone who is making the switch. The fact that tofu comes in so many different consistencies helps tremendously. I will be attempting tofu scramble here shortly. I have only had it in restaurants, so that experience will be coming soon!

Enjoy!!
