Yield: 4 Servings
Ingredients
| 2 blocks of firm or extra-firm tofu; drained and pressed | 2 green onions; chopped |
| 1/2 cup mayonnaise | 1/2 tsp salt |
| 1 packet Hop Barons spicy seasoning | 1/2 tsp black pepper |
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Cut the tofu into small cubes and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Sprinkle 3 T Hop Barons Spicy Seasoning over the tofu cubes, and toss them to coat evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the remaining Hop Barons Spicy Seasoning, mayonnaise, chopped green onions, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully combined.
Once the tofu is done baking, let it cool for a few minutes before adding it to the mixing bowl with the other ingredients. Gently fold the tofu into the mayonnaise mixture until it is fully coated.
Serve the vegan tofu "egg" salad chilled, either as a side dish or as a sandwich filling. Enjoy!
