Tips & Tricks
- If you can’t be bothered to make the high-protein mayo, just use light mayo. It’s got similar calorie content, just less protein. I would still recommend adding a little bit of Dijon mustard to your mixture though!
- This makes for a great low-cal/high-protein sandwich if you can find some low calorie bread! I love Hero white bread (they have it at my local grocery store), but more and more low-cal / keto breads are popping up so you should be able to find something.
- If you’re less lazy than me and want a bit more flavor, shred up a rotisserie chicken instead of using the pre-shredded breast meat! You’ll have slightly more calories / slightly less protein, but it tastes even better.
- I haven’t tried freezing this recipe, but it’s lasted in my fridge about a week just fine.
