Vegan “Egg” Salad – A Perfect Picnic Pal

“No Egg”  Salad is a perfect picnic food. You can either use it for sandwiches, a spread for some gluten-free crackers or as a dip for veggies. This is a hit at picnics and potlucks and a great summer food.

Ingredients

• ½  cup dry sunflower seeds (I used the Go Raw brand Sprouted and salted ones)
• 1/2 cup dry Brazil nuts
• 1/2 cup macadamia nuts
• salt to taste (the sunflower seeds are already salted)
• ¼  teaspoon powdered kelp
• 1 teaspoon turmeric
• ½  cup filtered water
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 stalks celery
• 2 tablespoons dried dill
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 2 stalks celery, finely diced

Directions

1. Place all ingredients except diced celery (note add the first 2 stalks celery to the blend)
2. Process until smooth but not creamy.
3. Stir in diced celery

Macadamia Mayonnaise (optional – it tastes great either way.  The mayonnaise makes it creamier)

• 1/2 cup macadamia nuts
• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• 1/4 cup water
