Mayo Recommendations
These are the big three
This recipe is better with a tangier mayo. The best one, in my opinion, is Trader Joes vegan mayo. That being said we have made this recipe using all three of these options and it has always been great!
The Breads
Any loaf of focaccia from the grocery store will do. If you’re feeling really ambitious you can even bake your own! A loaf of ciabatta, or ciabatta buns work great if you’re not a focaccia person.
