     Excellent! Everyone in the family loves it. Try diced red bell peppers, and you can cut the mayo in half. - 4/8/12

     I have made this a lot. Reminds me of the Trader Joe's Eggless salad. I crumble the tofu and add the tumeric directly to it and it gives it the yellow color of eggs. Also I mix the mayo with all the seasonings and then mix it in the tofu. Seems to even out the flavor better. Delish - 7/5/11

     I just made this and I can't believe how much easier it is to use tofu than to boil a bunch of eggs and peel them. Plus, it's cheaper! I used slightly more tofu, added some mustard and nutritional yeast, and it was still really good. You can't go wrong with this one. - 2/25/10

     I added cayenne powder and bell pepper. It is a wonderful lunch option and helps me up my protein, which is always a struggle for me. - 2/25/13

     This is yummy thrown into potato salad too! I use Indian black salad to give it a more eggy flavor. - 6/8/12

     I love this recipe! I have had an egg allergy for about 6 years, so have not been able to eat egg salad in a very long time. Thank-you so much! - 4/12/09

     I like the green onions in this, it gives it a little more color and not such a strong onion flavor. - 12/5/08
