VEGAN SALADE DE BOEUF À LA PARISIENNE

[Vegan Cold Beef and Potato Salad]

...Julia says that she doesn't give exact measurements on this one as she doesn't know how much (vegan) beef you have...

...so I guess this is a leftover sort of recipe...
...start with some cold braised vegan beef...y'all have seen these TVP strips before...and cold boiled potato...
...quarter some vegan hard boiled egg...and thinly slice a mild onion...this one is an organic Vidalia from Trader Joes...
...line a plate with lettuce...Julia specifies Boston or watercress...but I only had Romaine...so that's what I used...still pretty...
...then add potatoes and onions...
...Vegan beef strips...
...decorate with quartered tomatoes and vegan hard boiled eggs...
...and lunch is served...
...pour over some vinaigrette...
..and try to get a little bit of everything in each bite...

...it was really good...and a perfect salad for these last hot, hot days of summer...

Substitutions:
