Notes
- It is perfect as a side for barbecue, seafood, and grilled meats or as a topping for tacos, burgers, and sandwiches.
- Adjust the heat level by modifying the Cajun seasoning and hot sauce—add cayenne or red pepper flakes for extra spice or reduce them for a milder taste.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to five days; stir before serving. Freezing is not recommended as the mayo may separate.
- For variations, swap mayo for Greek yogurt, add shredded carrots for extra color, or use purple cabbage or Brussels sprouts for a twist.
