Here at my house, mayonnaise is more than just a sandwich spread. Beside the obvious chicken and tuna salad, I used it for a variety of sauces, dips and dressings. I spread it on meats before grilling and toss my veggies in mayonnaise before roasting. Mayonnaise is just so versatile.

I have some good news—the best name in the game when it comes to mayonnaise has a vegan option that’s available at your local Publix right now! Yep, everyone can enjoy a 100% egg-free mayo that tastes and spreads just like the real thing thanks to new Hellmann’s Vegan Dressing and Spread!

While we are not vegan, I have been trying to add in more plant-based products into my meals and recipes. I figure that if it tastes great… well, why not give it a try?

I am thrilled to report that Hellmann’s Vegan Dressing and Spread totally exceeded my expectations. It’s perfect for sandwiches and salads and worked like a champ on my roasted veggies. In fact they were such a hit, I decided to make one of my all-time favorite salads—my Roasted Acorn Squash Salad!

When the days get shorter and the temperatures start to drop and you want something as nourishing as it is satisfying, this salad always hits the spot for us. Tossing the squash in the Hellmann’s Vegan spread add such great flavor and allows the squash to caramelize and cook up perfectly.

You simply toss the roasted squash with some salad greens, cranberries, pumpkin seeds and crispy chickpeas. Throw on some feta or crumbled tofu if you want to keep it vegan for the perfect combination of flavors and textures that just screams fall!
