Ingredients
  

  • 1 large English cucumber made into ribbons (about 9 ounces/255g)
  • 1 package (14 ounces/397g) firm tofu, cubed into small pieces
  • ½ teaspoon turmeric
  • ½ avocado (about 2.3 ounces/65g)
  • ¼ cup (60g) vegan mayo
  • ½ ounce (10g) chives, cut
  • 1 tablespoon (5g) nutritional yeast
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl add half of the chopped tofu. Sprinkle the turmeric over it and toss to mix until it turns yellow. Set to the side.
  • In a separate larger bowl mash the avocado with a back of a fork.
  • Then add in the tofu (both the one with mixed with turmeric and the plain one), vegan mayo, chives, and seasonings. Mix together with a spatula or spoon. Taste it and add any seasonings you like.
  • Place in the fridge until ready to fill the cucumber rolls.
  • Using a vegetable peeler take your cucumber and make long cucumber ribbons. If you need a visual watch the YouTube video. I usually take the first peel and put it to the side as it is all skin. Once, you get to the middle when it becomes seeds I flip the cucumber over and repeat until I get to the seeds on that side. Any scraps you can snack on or place in fridge.
  • Now take 1 or 2 cucumber ribbons, the cucumber ribbons from the middle of the cucumber are a bit thicker so you may only need one, and scoop about 1 to 2 tablespoons of the filling onto the ribbon from top to bottom. It is best to not overfill these. Then use your hands to carefully roll it up.
  • Repeat until all the roll ups have been made. I made 11. You may have a little extra "egg" salad left.
  • Garnish with more chives, microgreens, salt, and pepper. Enjoy.
