Ingredients

1 16-oz block extra firm tofu
1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp refined coconut oil (melted)
3 Tbsp lemon juice
3 Tbsp water
1.5 tsp sea salt
1 1.4-oz package dry veggie soup mix

Steps:

Open the tofu package and use your hands to crumble it into the blender or food processor. Add the oil, lemon juice, water, and salt. Cover and blend until the oil emulsifies and the mixture is smooth and creamy. This part is key, so be patient. It can take several minutes for the mixture to go from grainy to smooth. Stop to scrape the sides as needed and use a tamper if you have one.
Pour the mixture into a large air-tight container and stir in the soup mix. Once incorporated, cover the container and place it in the fridge for 8 hours or overnight to set.
When the mixture has set, taste and adjust seasonings as you see fit. Then, spread it on bagels, toast, sandwiches, ALL. THE. THINGS. You can store leftovers in the fridge for a week or the freezer for a month.

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1 8 ounce package vegan cream cheese
2 tablespoons minced carrot
2 tablespoons minced red bell pepper
2 tablespoons minced green onion
1 teaspoon dried dill
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper (or to taste, optional)
4 vegan bagels of your choice (halved and scooped (see the "Let's scoop some bagels!" section above))
red onion (sliced into rings)
tomato slices (1 large tomato should do the trick)
capers (to taste)
8 lemon wedges (1-2 lemons, depending on how citrusy you want your bagel sandwich)

Steps:

In a medium-sized bowl, soften the cream cheese with a fork.
Stir in the rest of the cream cheese ingredients, until they're well-combined. Refrigerate while you prep everything else for the bagel sandwiches.
To make 1 bagel sandwich: Divide the cream cheese between the scooped bagel halves. Add 1-2 rings of onion, then top with 1-2 tomato slices each. Spoon on 1 tablespoon of capers per bagel half, then squeeze the juice of 1/4 fresh lemon on top.
Family style: If you prefer, you can do like my family did on Sunday mornings, and just set everything out on the kitchen table. People can use the toppings to build their own best bagel sandwich.
