Chickpeas are another staple in a vegan diet, because there's just as versatile as jack fruit is for a natural substitute to tuna.

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 well liked of current trending foods on earth. It is enjoyed by millions every day. It is simple, it’s quick, it tastes yummy. Tofu tuna substitute is something that I’ve loved my entire life. They are fine and they look wonderful.
To begin with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can have tofu tuna substitute using 5 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Tofu tuna substitute:

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. Vegan tuna is a vegan meat substitute for tuna. Of course, it doesn't contain any real tuna at all, and although the texture of this recipe is not super close to regular tuna, it does have a similar flavor and it's actually delicious.
Steps 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!
