- Serving suggestion: Serve on gluten-free focaccia bread, topped with baby spinach leaves, whipped lemon mayo, and kalamata olives.
- To make the whipped lemon mayo: Place ⅓ cup of mayo (I used soy-free mayo) in a small bowl. Using a handheld mixer, beat in 3 teaspoons of lemon juice, a teaspoon at a time, until light and fluffy.
