This was in today's LA Times (6/14). I assume (but don't know) that the
fat-free mayonnaise contains egg, so technically, this wouldn't be a
totally eggless dish.

"EGG" SALAD: Drain tofu well. Mash with fork. Stir in mayonnaise, celery,
mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, dill, green onion, turmeric, sea salt and
pepper to taste. Chill about 2 hours.

ASSEMBLY: Lightly spread bread slices with nonfat mayonnaise. Layer about
1/2 cup shredded carrots on 6 slices bread. Top each with alfalfa sprouts,
then spoon about 1/4 cup "egg" salad on top of each sandwich and spread to
edges. Top each with several romaine leaves, then cover each sandwich with
remaining bread slices. Cut into quarters and serve.

Makes 1 1/2 cups egg salad for 6 sandwiches. Each sandwich contains about:
225 calories; 737 mg sodium; 0 cholesterol; 3 grams fat; 37 grams
carbohydrates; 12 grams protein; 4.67 grams fiber. Each 1/4-cup serving
egg salad alone contains about: 29 calories; 368 mg sodium; 0 cholesterol;
1 gram fat; 2 grams carbohydrates; 3 grams protein; 0.11 gram fiber.

You can access the LA Times web site at WWW.LATIMES.COM to get the food
section on Thursdays. This is one of the harder to navigate sites but you
can get to the food section through "news" and if you can find a simple way
to get to past week's food sections, I have a MacArthur Genius Award
Nomination I am prepared to submit on your behalf! Cheers, Sandy Wilcox
