hello Jen,
Would you have a recipe for “Eggless Egg Salad”
I had it at a luncheon, and it was wonderful.
Thanks so much!

Hi Carol Anne,
I don’t specifically. For a vegan one, you can use tofu and vegan mayonnaise. For a raw one, I imagine you could use chopped avocado with pickles, onion, and celery.
