Carbs Per Serving: 7g total
Effort: Easy

Ingredients:
½ pound chicken, beef, or ham – cooked and cut according to preference

12 ounces tofu, firm drained very well

6 large eggs
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
¼ cup chopped onion
¼ cup chopped celery
2 tablespoons capers – drained
3 tablespoons dill pickle – chopped

How to Prepare:
Note: chop meats to desired chunkiness after cooking. Leftovers work great! In a large bowl, mix desired main ingredient with remaining ingredients.

Season to taste with salt and pepper. I like to add a little horseradish sauce to the ham or roast beef salad for some zip.

For egg salad: Mix everything but the eggs well. Chop eggs to desired chunkiness and fold into mixed ingredients. Add a few drops of tabasco sauce if desired. A squeeze of lemon also goes well.

For eggless salad: Mix everything but the tofu Squish tofu with your hands or with a fork until it breaks apart. Fold in with remaining ingredients.
Eggless salad should sit for at least an hour, refrigerated, before serving. Lemon or a few drops soy sauce work great in tofu based salads.

**personal note*** Process meats find in a food processor for more of a ‘spread’ consistency. Don’t process with the remaining ingredients until you get the meat broken down almost to the size you want. The spreads work very well on lettuce leaves for roll-ups The chunky version works great over lettuce for a
salad meal.

NOTES : Counts for tofu and eggs not included in totals… tofu is 10 carbs, eggs 3.6.

It is very meaty and rich. Try several different versions with different meat and vegetables. Adjust the heat as needed throughout the recipe to keep it simmering but don't let it get dry and burnt.

Put in enough olive oil and/or butter to cover the bottom and heat. Next add chopped onion and celery stalks. Let this cook until translucent. Then add seasonings like dried or fresh rosemary and cilantro, and parsley. Then add some dried fennel seeds. Amounts as you wish. Next add about as much chopped up and fried bacon as you desire.

Next add two to four cans of chicken broth and let it simmer some more. Last, you can pour in a pint of heavy cream and stir it in. I like to chop up some fresh kale or other greens into
