One of the things that intimidated me the most during my first Whole30 was the idea of making my own mayo, but Melissa Joulwan made it sound and look so easy (plus she uses it in so many of her Well Fed recipes) that I decided to give it a try. Get the recipe and instructions here!
I like to use an immersion blender to get the best consistency. The key is patience, but it only takes a few minutes! |
The finished product! |
Throughout my Whole30, I love to experiment with different varieties of tuna and chicken salad. I recently found a Chipotle Chicken Salad recipe from PaleOMG that I adapted using the mayo from Well Fed.
The chipotle peppers I used - found them at HEB |

Goes great with spinach leaves |
One of the reasons I love tuna and chicken salad is the convenience. You don't need a microwave to eat this meal, but can just pack it in a cooler with some veggies and eat it anywhere! Plus, there are so many varieties to play around with. You can make a Waldorf salad with walnuts and apples, a deli-style salad with hard-boiled eggs, or anything else that's appealing to you. I encourage you to mix it up!
