I was tinkering around with tofu a while back and came up with a fun, vegetarian version of 'Shrimp Cocktail'. Super simple to do... I just coarsely mash up a block of drained, extra firm tofu and then ~~ add my favorite spicy cocktail sauce, a little bit of finely minced celery & onion, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, fresh ground pepper and an extra dash of hot sauce. I like to serve it in a pretty glass with some crackers, just like you would a traditional shrimp cocktail. (to me, it makes it feel extra special when I serve it like that) I like to eat it along side a simple kale side salad, and I'm good to go.
I think this would make a great, light Meatless Monday lunch... Or, maybe even try the Tofu 'Shrimp Cocktail' as an appetizer for your Meatless Monday dinner. Enjoy!
Yeah, I am a sucker for a shrimp cocktail, too! I just love the flavor of cocktail sauce, the more horseradish, the better. :)
