I see vegan YouTubers chomping this down all the time in sandwiches, and I love tuna salad sandwiches, so I wanted to give this a try.
My mayo is still egg-based...but you could get a vegan mayo to have an animal product-free product!

Serve on crackers or toast or whatever you like!
Pretty tasty and very similar to tuna salad since the pickles have some briny-ness that is similar to the fishiness of tuna. I'd make this again for sure.
