  • While mushrooms and heart of palm are sautéing prep the marinade
  • Combine remaining ingredients under SEAFOOD SALAD. Do not include the sriracha mayo ingredients, those are for after.
  • Stir ingredients until combined
  • Once you have sautéed veg for 10 minutes add marinade to pan
    Prepping vegan "seafood" salad
  • Cook for another minute
  • Remove from heat and let cool
  • ***I prefer to let this step of the salad marinate a day in the fridge to help really absorb the flavor, but if you are short on time this step is not necessary

PREP THE SRIRACHA MAYO

  • Combine all ingredients for the sriracha mayo in a bowl
  • Mix until combined
    Vegan sriracha mayo

COMBINE SRIRACHA MAYO AND "SEAFOOD" SALAD

  • Once the "seafood" salad has marinated for a day or cooled (if you do not have the time to marinate for a day) combine with sriracha mayo. ***If there is still liquid in the "seafood" salad after marinating strain out the extra liquid so you don't end up with salad soup!
  • Set aside

PREP THE TOPPING

  • Wash and slice your choice of vegetable
  • For this recipe I thinly shaved carrots, cut up some cucumbers, sliced avocado, thinly chopped cabbage. I also incorporated edamame

PREP THE RICE

  • In a sauce pan combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sugar
  • Heat over medium heat until sugar is dissolved
  • Remove from heat and combine with cooked rice
