Salad with Vegan Mayonnaise is an extension to the recipe I tried for Vegan Mayonnaise, specially because the other way to use it would have been over the sandwich. I will soon try that too for my son. Let us see if he likes it too for he mostly enjoys the Paneer Spread which I make. Well for this Salad with Vegan Mayonnaise , I and my better half enjoyed it for breakfast. He felt it was quite succulent and still had a crunchy bite. For those who want to keep this as 100% raw, considering I blanched and sauted for 30 secs, can do that too.
Beauty of this Salad with Vegan Mayonnaise is that you can make your choice of variations in the recipe as long as the vegetables are concerned but stick to the dressing. Still the change in vegetables will give you a new feel of the Salad. In fact if you all some tofu or even boiled chick peas it would take the taste to next level.
I hope you enjoy trying this Salad with Vegan Mayonnaise and do share your feedback with me 🙂
