इस शाकाहारी अंडे का सलाद is a delicious and easy way of enjoying a plant-based version of a classic dish packed with more than प्रोटीन की 15 ग्राम. It’s made with tofu, vegan mayonnaise, and simple spices and condiments that give it a creamy and delicious texture.
You can serve it on its own as a salad or pair it with some fresh greens, crackers, or bread for a healthy meal. In this recipe, I’ll share with you how to make this vegan egg salad recipe with a few ingredients and only 15 minutes of your time. You won’t miss the eggs at all!
I love healthy vegan salads, like my मेयोनीज़ के बिना शाकाहारी आलू का सलाद, Vegan Couscous Salad, तथा Vegan Soba Noodle Salad to serve with a summer BBQ. But when some of my guests are used to eating egg salads, I make this vegan alternative to make them try!
So, if you too miss eggs on your vegan journey, try this vegan egg salad recipe or our chickpea omelette. It not only tastes like the real thing. It also has a lovely egg flavor from the black salt and a chunky chewy texture like boiled eggs.
It also contains as much protein as an egg salad but is naturally made from plant-based ingredients and is also gluten-free.
A vegan egg salad is a tofu salad that mimics the classic egg salad but is made with firm tofu instead of eggs. It’s a vegan recipe alternative to eggs, high in protein, and perfect to make sandwiches or as a light meal.

एलर्जी स्वैप
If you are allergic to some of the ingredients, you can try the following substitutions:
- तैल मुक्त – For an oil-free option, try vegan yogurt made from soy milk or oat milk and stir in apple cider vinegar to give a tangy flavor similar to mayonnaise.
- शाकाहारी मेयो – You can replace the mayo with vegan sour cream or vegan yogurt.
- काला नमक can be replaced with regular salt but it won’t add a egg flavor at all.
- पोषक खमीर can be skipped. You can add 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric to add a yellow color to the salad.
- कम Fodmap – प्याज और लहसुन न डालें।

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले प्रश्न
Below are my answers to your most common questions about this recipe:
You can’t make egg salad from silken tofu. Silken tofu is silky and turns into a smooth puree quickly. It’s not firm enough to make a salad.
Nutritional yeast gives the salad a light cheesy flavor. You can absolutely skip it without losing much flavors. However, black salt is the magic ingredient that adds an eggy flavor to this recipe. Without black salt, it will taste good but not have the sulfur egg flavor you are after.
