Recipe Tips

There may be some small lumps in the sauce from the mayonnaise. You can also use a blender for a creamier texture.
Feel free to swap mayonnaise for plain Greek yogurt for a lighter option.
If you like a sweeter sauce, just add more honey to taste; for a tangier kick, mix in a bit more mustard.
This sauce is great not only as a dip but also as a salad dressing or marinade for grilled meats and veggies!

How To Store Leftovers
