Ingredients

  • 3/4 pound firm tofu
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
  • 3 teaspoons brown mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup celery (diced)
  • 1 tablespoon onion (diced)
  • 1/2 green pepper (seeded and diced)
  • 1 tablespoon parsley (minced)

Measured for the finished dish, as published — so there are no per-ingredient numbers to show.

Method

  1. Wash hands with soap and water.
  2. Prepare tofu by draining the water from the package and placing tofu between two plates.
  3. Put a heavy object on top and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes.
  4. Drain the water that collects on the bottom plate every few minutes.
  5. In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, mustard, and soy sauce.
  6. In a medium bowl, combine the diced tofu, celery, onion, pepper, and parley; stir in the mayonnaise mixture and toss gently to coat.
  7. Refrigerate covered until the flavors are blended -- at least one hour.
  8. Use as a sandwich filling or on top of whole grain crackers.
