can it be done? i make homemade vegan mayo (even though i'm not vegan - because it has 22 calories) and i would like to be able to use that when i create recipes for egg salad or tuna salad.

i realize that this is probably impossible, but anyone have a work around or quick add solution?

    Add the vegan mayo as a recipe in your saved 'recipes'. Then when you make an egg salad log your ingredients in your daily food intake and just add the vegan mayo as another food addition. I do this with salads all the time & then just add the dressing as an extra food item instead of including it in the recipe.

    That's what I've been doing. Wishful thinking that I could integrate it into the recipe for clarity and efficiency. Lol

    Thank you!
