The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The RawtarianThis cashew-based mock egg salad recipe tastes surprisingly like the real thing. It’s very rich and satisfying, and tastes best when balanced with light, fresh veggies, especially romaine lettuce.
If your blender isn’t powerful and has a difficult time blending harder items, consider soaking the cashews in warm water for an hour to soften them. Rinse and pat dry before using.
Another idea is to add some chopped mushroom to the red bell pepper and celery. The chewy texture of the mushrooms resembles the texture of egg whites.

This one deserves 10 stars. The sauce is addicting. I love it. Added sprouts on the side.

I made your raw egg salad today and was blown away by how delicious it was! I added some chopped sweet onion and subbed the sea salt with black salt and ate it on a bed of chopped kale. I thoroughly enjoyed that meal! Can't wait to try some of your other recipes.

Raw egg salad recipe
Seriously, seriously, what can I say about this recipe that hasn't already been said. On Week 1 of the Low Fat Raw Cleanse and wasn't sure about a Mock Egg Salad recipe . . . and my mind is completely blown. It's beyond fantabulous! I added chopped mushrooms and ate two romaine leaves with this inside. So, so, utterly delicious. You continue to amaze with your recipes and I'm so grateful! I can be a raw vegan!

Yummy! I added Asafoetida (I already had this in my spice rack and I never get to use it!) and pickle juice + extra garlic and turmeric. Tasty!

So many of your recipes use cashews and I have a family member that can’t eat them. What’s the best way to substitute? And is it 1:1 ratio for substitution?
I love all your recipes, been raw on and off for about 3 years. And your site is my go to for all things delicious and easy so thank you! Now I just want to share with my family

I have a cashew allergy. Is there another nut I can use instead?

Raw egg salad recipe
I made this yesterday to top the last of our macaroni. Pretty nice, but
I used the processor not the blender. Will pay attention next time and
will use the black salt. My husband swore he could taste onions??? none
there of course!

The main difference re: blender vs food processor for this recipe is the smoothness factor! It'll be smoother (much smoother) in the blender :)

Raw egg salad recipe
Very flavorful and great texture. Smoothe and crunchy. I used black salt for a more "egg" like flavor and finely diced onions for a little more crunch. This is a keeper!

If you use Kala Namak (black salt) instead of regular salt, it tastes like real egg.

I followed the guidelines in the raw cleanse, so just the peppers and cherry tomatoes on the side. Might try with mushrooms next time. Such a great recipe to experiment with!

Love this recipe and made it several times now, then the other day I had some advacado to use up and when I mixed it in an the egg salad I found it almost replicated the texture and taste of the hard boiled egg yoke so combined with the mushrooms I found it was even more like egg salad!!
