Default Avacado Carpaccio

.. . . I have a favorite recipe that I'd like to adapt for vegans.
Uncooked tuna with vinaigrette and avocado. Here is what the basic
recipe will look like (1 serving).

One whole avocado
rice wine vinaigrette
little pepper
onions

This is fairly spartan? I'd really like suggestions for fleshing it
out, no pun intended, for vegans (myself) and all my classmates at
University who deserve a splendid oral stimulation. Thanks for
reading, scott.

Perhaps thin slices of soy cheese (not the Chinese sort, the cheese
replacement sort)?
Smoked tofu?
Roasted red sweet peppers?
Slices of portobello mushrooms?
Toasted corn tortillas (not crisped) or pappadums?

You could try turning it into a main course salad by adding some washed and
shredded Napa cabbage, finely shredded carrots, black beans, and using a
finely sliced red onion.

Use a light sesame oil in your rice wine vinaigrette, and garnish with chow
mein noodles, roasted nuts, or toasted sesame seeds.

How about marinated baby mozzarella balls? And some grape tomatoes.

Cheese is not in the vegan diet. No animal products allowed.

Sorry about that. I find dietary restrictions so confusing.

(I need to start my own movement where broccoli and bell pepper is
forbidden! )

No kidding. "Vegetarian" comes in many different flavors, allowing for a
statement like...

LOL.. some people will go to extremes just to be able to call themselves
"vegetarian". "Is that lacto-veg, ova-lacto-veg, vegan, or just what, may I
ask?????" Oh, marino-veg?? Gadz! I hope I haven't just coined another
one!

I used to be strictly raw-foodist, then fruitarian (largely out of
necessity----no refrigeration, power or propane and VERY far from a market),
so don't get me wrong here. But, indeed the term "vegetarian" can be
ambiguous, depending on who is willing to stretch it. But vegans are pretty
unbending, as a rule.
