Notes

  1. Can be made 100% vegan with adjustments to subbing out real eggs and using non-dairy milk mixed with either a few tablespoons of ground flaxseed or vegan mayo to thicken it
  2. Try to buy organic when you can.
  3. Aim to always use an oil with high smoke point especially avocado oil when air frying
  4. Serve with Creamy Cool Paleo Ranch
