Tofu Tuna Salad

So many people are scared of tofu...don't be. Once you learn what to do with it, you will love its versatility. It is extremely healthy and can pick up any flavor you give it. If you look at it like a potato...flavorless until you give a flavor, then you will be good to go.

1 pound firm tofu-frozen
2 green onions, minced
1/2 cup mayo(vegan if you prefer)
2T tamari(aged soy sauce)
1T lemon juice
1 t kelp (optional)(I have never used this ingredient)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thaw tofu(Usually 24 hours in frig, on a plate). Break into chunks and squeeze out excess water. Break down into consistency of crumbles.Put drained tofu in medium sized bowl. On the side, in a small bowl, stir together all other ingredients, mix well and add to tofu. Serve on bread or on a bed of lettuce.

I love this one, but no one eats it with me. So I make this rarely.
