Chickpeas are another staple in a vegan diet, because there's just as versatile as jack fruit is for a natural substitute to tuna. There's so many uses for them too, from c runchy chickpea snacks, to hummus & falafel, there's no shortage of ways to use chickpeas. Tofu is high in calcium and potassium and is also a good source of vegetable protein. It is both low in calories and fat and hence makes an excellent substitute for tuna.
Tofu tuna substitute is one of the most popular of current trending foods on earth. It’s appreciated by millions daily. It’s simple, it is fast, it tastes yummy. They’re fine and they look wonderful. Tofu tuna substitute is something that I have loved my entire life.
To get started with this recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can cook tofu tuna substitute using 5 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Tofu tuna substitute:
- Get 2 cans braised tofu
- Get 10 g rice vinegar
- Make ready 1/4 lemon juice
- Prepare 4 g nori
- Get 1 tsp omega 3 oil (optional)
Mix in and you're ready to serve! The three substitutes I've tried with pretty good success for tuna are jackfruit, chickpeas (only for tuna salads), and tofu. Jackfruit is the most versatile of the three and can be used as a tuna substitute for sandwiches or sliders. The optimal recipes to look for a tuna vegan substitute are tuna salad recipes.
Instructions to make Tofu tuna substitute:
- Drain the tofu and add the contents to a large bowl. If you haven’t come across braised tofu before here’s the brand I use.
- You want to achieve a flake like consistency- similar to canned tuna. I find it helpful to start with scissors before moving on to a fork. Using the back of the fork press down on the tofu to create the flakes.
- Once you’re happy with the consistency, add the rice vinegar and nori. Any nori works- even sheets if you cut/rip it in to tiny pieces. You can also use sprinkles.
- If using omega 3 oil, add this in now too. I have these capsules which are a bit of a pain as you need to split the capsule to get to the oil and it almost always goes everywhere but the bowl. It’s worth it though- nutritional benefits aside it adds an undeniable taste of the sea!
- Mix well! This is now ready to go. I’ve used it in stir fries, pizza toppings, stews. You name it. Enjoy!

Fish is the preferable substitute for canned tuna, but any other lean meat with the same calories will work. Other substitutes for tuna include cottage cheese, tofu, or almonds. If you're a vegan (or vegetarian) who misses tuna salad or tuna sandwiches, you can get a very similar taste and texture using all the same ingredients, but substituting the tuna with tofu and adding a bit of kelp seaweed for a fishy flavor.
