vegan chicken salad

Here is a simple and nostalgic recipe for an old lunchbox classic. Longève Unseasoned Plant-Based Protein Crumbles fill in nicely for chicken here, coming together with vegetables and seasoning to create the quintessential sandwich filler or salad topper. Our vegan chicken salad recipe is basic by design, so you have plenty of room to get creative! Try adding toasted walnuts, diced apples and grapes for a Waldorf-style chicken-less salad, or curry powder, cilantro and toasted almonds and raisins for a delicious curried chicken-less salad.

INGREDIENTS

1 cup Longève Unseasoned Plant-Based Protein Crumbles
½ tsp. vegetable bouillon powder
½ cup hot water

1 stalk celery, diced small (about ⅓ cup)
1 small carrot, shredded (about ⅓ cup)
1 Tbsp. minced parsley (optional)

½ tsp. minced tarragon or ¼ tsp. dried (optional)
1 tsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. Dijon mustard

⅓ cup mayonnaise (vegan if desired)
¼ tsp. fine sea salt
⅛ tsp. black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

Combine Longève crumbles, vegetable bouillon powder and ½ cup hot water in a mixing bowl and stir well to combine. Let stand for 5 minutes for crumbles to rehydrate.
Add celery, carrot, parsley, tarragon, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise salt and pepper and mix thoroughly, adding more or less mayonnaise to your taste.
If a more dense, bound mixture is preferred, you can pulse the rehydrated crumbles briefly in a food processor before folding in the remaining ingredients.
Serve as a sandwich filling or as a salad topper.

*VEGETABLE BOUILLON POWDER is essentially dehydrated broth, and it adds fullness and flavor to meats, soups and sauces. Here, it works to add chicken-like flavor to our Unseasoned crumbles. When purchasing, be sure to double-check that the bouillon powder is vegetarian and does not include chicken or beef stock.
