Libby GreenEggless egg salad sandwich? Say what?
It's true. We did it and you will too after you see how incredibly easy and tasty this recipe is. Let's just say this sandwich is eggsellent!
Silken tofu... the sexist sounding tofu there is.
But how do we create a plant-based sandwich that mimics the texture and flavor of eggs you ask? Well, let's start with foundation of the recipe... silken tofu. Also known as soft tofu, silken tofu perfectly imitates eggs because of its consistency and its neutral flavor.
Our vegan salad sandwich wouldn't be complete without our favorite healthy fat friend... the avocado! To provide the best texture make sure your avocado is perfectly ripe. You know, not too hard or too soft. Juuuuust right.
We found the ripest avocado in all of Germany!
If you've ever had a egg salad sandwich then you know that it has to have a crunch. For our crunch factor we chopped up some pickles and cucumbers! To see the recipe in full effect watch our short and tasty video below!
