Notes

  • I have used my home-made oil free vegan mayo for this recipe and I have provided a link to it. However, you may use store bought vegan mayo as well.
  • Feel free to add celery, carrots or any veggies of your choice to increase this salad.
  • The dressing can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for 4-5 days.
  • Leftover salad can be refrigerated and used the next day. If you find it very dry just add 2 tbsp of dairy free milk and mix it.
