Healthy Honey Mustard Dressing - no mayo
Description
Healthy Honey Mustard Dressing - no mayo blends Dijon mustard and yogurt with honey for sweetness and tang, rounded out by olive oil and apple cider vinegar. Garlic adds depth, while fresh herbs contribute aroma and flavor. Whisked together, the dressing has a creamy, smooth texture that enhances dishes without relying on mayonnaise.
It is suited for use as a salad dressing, sandwich spread, or marinade, providing a flavorful alternative to heavier dressings. Adjust the seasoning with salt and honey to balance tanginess and sweetness to your preference. Store leftovers refrigerated for up to one week.
You can modify the recipe using coconut yogurt for a vegan version and replace honey with maple syrup or a keto-friendly sweetener. Allowing the dressing to rest chilled before use deepens the flavors.
