Tofu Salad

I bought more tofu than was wise on sale last month, and I can't serve it for dinner, because Chris won't eat it. So I went in search of what to do with it, and came across the concept of Tofu Salad, the easiest way ever to use tofu.

Like egg, ham, chicken, or tuna salad, it's a mash up of a protein source (the tofu) and a mayonnaise-based dressing. Unlike the others, Tofu Salad will not have cholesterol unless the mayonnaise does. It is most like egg salad in texture, but quicker to make because you don't have to boil and peel the eggs.

I was severely lazy when I made mine this morning, so I made a very basic version of it. I didn't feel like chopping anything else.

Take a block of tofu (I had extra firm), drain it, and chop it (I used my round manual chopper) until it's medium-sized crumbles.
Add an amount of mayonnaise that is to your liking.
Add lemon juice to taste (a couple quick squirts from the bottle, for me)
I added brown mustard, but that is optional.

Suggested ingredients to mix in include green onions, apple chunks, celery, raisins, dried cranberries, nuts... whatever one would put in a chicken or tuna salad. I used flax seeds because they had been lurking in my fridge anyhow.
