Ingredients

  • 1 Recipe Vegan Seitan Turkey or Vegan Seitan Pastrami (or half and half)
  • 1 Large Head Green Leaf or Romaine Lettuce chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 3 Medium Baby Cucumbers or one regular cucumber
  • 1 Pint Cherry Tomatoes halved
  • 1 Small Red Onion chopped
  • 2 Medium Avocados sliced
  • 1 Cup Vegan Croutons optional
  • 1 Cup Vegan Cheddar or Swiss optional
  • 1 Cup Vegan Ranch (or Italian, or honey mustard)

Instructions

  • If you don't already have it made, prepare the seitan turkey. Let cool slightly and then use a serrated knife to slice thinly. Or, cut into chunks.
  • Prepare your dressing. I used my vegan ranch recipe. You can also make vegan honey mustard or Italian dressing.
  • Assemble the salad. On a large platter, place a bed of romaine. Top with the turkey, tomatoes, cucumbers, onion, avocado, croutons, and vegan cheese. Drizzle with dressing of choice.
