How to Prepare Vegan Chik’n Salad with Cranberries and Pistachios

Soak the soy curls in a very warm water for 10 minutes. Squeeze all excess water out of them, then roughly chop the larger pieces and set aside.
While the soy curls are soaking, mix the diced apple and vinegar, draining out any excess.
In a mixing bowl, combine the apples with all the other ingredients, stirring well. Check for seasoning, then chill for at least 30 minutes, covered. Serve as desired and most importantly... Enjoy!!
