For a vegan version, substitute the honey with maple syrup or agave nectar and use a vegan mayonnaise. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper according to your spice preference. A pinch of red pepper flakes can also be used. Feel free to add other vegetables like diced cucumber or celery for extra crunch. If you don't have celery salt, you can use a pinch of regular salt combined with a pinch of celery seed. Toasted pumpkin seeds or chopped walnuts can be used instead of sunflower seeds.
