Mock Tuna Salad

Mock Tuna Salad, vegan and gluten-free (check label on tempeh, some are GF, others are not)

Start with a package of tempeh.  Shred the tempeh with a grater (as if you are making latkes).  Place the shredded tempeh in a steamer, and steam for about 15 minutes.  Steaming the tempeh makes its flavor a bit milder...  Let the tempeh cool.  Add your favorite vegan mayo (I like Wildwood Garlic Aioli).  Add about 1/4 cup finely chopped onion (to taste), and a couple of tablespoons pickle relish (again, to taste).  Salt & pepper to taste.  If you like, you can add a little prepared mustard and/or finely chopped celery.  Stir everything together and chill.  Makes an awesome sandwich, on toasted bread with lettuce, or you can eat it with crackers, or just right out of the container :)
