- can be made in bulk for a crowd ahead of time.
Variation – add chopped bell pepper, crispy bacon, chopped jalapeno, and pickled relish to the salad. While making a sandwich layer it with lettuce, tomato slices, microgreens, and radish slices. you can use toasted bread if you prefer. For flavor variation, you can add smoked paprika, curry powder or
To make it low-calorie, substitute half of the mayo with sour cream or Greek yogurt.
