3 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Breading:

Instructions
Thaw the Gardein Chick’n in the refrigerator overnight.
Preheat oven to 370°F (188°C).
Layer a half-slice of vegan Swiss cheese between two Chick’n scallopini to form a sandwich.
In a small bowl, mix vegan mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until smooth.
Brush the mayo-Dijon mixture over both sides of each sandwich.
Dip each sandwich into Just Egg, then coat with Panko breadcrumbs.
Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and lightly spray with oil.
Bake for 20 minutes, flip gently, then bake another 15 minutes until golden and crisp.
Serve hot with extra mayo-Dijon sauce on the side.
Notes
For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free Panko and certified gluten-free vegan products.
Air fryer variation: cook at 375°F for 20–25 minutes.
You can prep and refrigerate these ahead, or freeze before baking.
Substitute Just Egg with a flax egg or plant milk + flour mix if needed.
