Better than a "Tuna Fish" Sandwich
Posted Wednesday, April 14, 2010 at 12:06 AM

I just had to share this recipe... It is SOOOOO delicious!!

This recipe is taken from Rhonda’s “Hallelujah Holiday Recipes” spiral bound recipe book on page 146. It has a tuna salad flavor but contains no tuna. It is an incredibly delicious vegan tuna that people who have tried it always ask for more.

Ingredients

2 cups carrots (finely shredded)
1 medium red bell pepper (seeded & chopped fine)
2 celery stalks (chopped fine)
½ sweet red onion (chopped fine)
½ cup fresh parsley (minced)
½ teaspoon kelp
½ teaspoon Celtic OR Himalayan salt
4 tablespoon Grape Oil Vegenaise (purple label)
Directions

Place veggies in bowl and combine with dressings and seasonings. Mix well and allow flavors to mingle for at least several hours. May be served on a bed of dark green lettuce, in a sandwich, or pita pocket, or used to stuff tomatoes or fill a cucumber boat. Enjoy

*Organic ingredients are always recommended.

Is it the kelp that makes it taste like tuna? I've never had kelp. Can you substitute sea salt for the Celtic salt? Sounds good. Could also stuff it in the big pasta shells.

I found this online, but I'm not sure how reliable it is... "Celtic Sea Salt" seems to be both a type of salt and a brand name.

Table Salt: Also known as common salt, is commonly used by most people for cooking and for food preservation. Table salt is refined (processed), removing 82 out of the 84 minerals in salt, leaving behind only sodium and chloride. Over-consumption of table salt causes many untold health problems.

Sea Salt: Sea salt is a general term that refers to salt derived directly from the sea. And that is what it is, except that it is refined¾similar to table salt. Sea salt is thought to be healthier and more flavorful than table salt, but in actual fact it is actually processed and minerals and trace elements are removed.

Celtic Sea Salt: Refers to naturally moist salt harvested from the Atlantic seawater off the coast of Brittany, France. This type of salt are harvested using the Celtic method of wooden rakes allowing no metal to touch the salt. It is naturally air and sun-dried in clay ponds and gathered with wooden tools to preserve its living enzymes. Because it is unrefined, it contains all of the 84 beneficial live elements found in sea water, with no chemical and preservatives nor any other additives.
