Mayonnaise - Egg Free!

 
By Coach Maria - Salus Nutritionist & Food Expert
 
Yes, I know that purchasing mayonnaise at the grocery store is convenient.  But sometimes convenience comes at a cost.  Read the ingredients (soybean oil! sugar!) and - deep down - we all know there's a measure of guilt when we consume it.
 
Also, for those that have an egg allergy, mayonnaise is pretty much out.
 
This mayo is great for dipping your homemade fries or baked/grilled veggies or, add a bit of raw apple cider vinegar to make a creamy dressing.
 
Making your own mayo is so, so easy and the ingredients/fats are incredibly healthy - try it!
 
Ingredients
makes 1 1/4 cup
serving size: 2 tblsp
 
1/2 c coconut butter (or coconut concentrate), warmed
1/2 c warm water
1/4 c olive oil
3-4 garlic cloves
1/4 tsp sea salt
 
Place all ingredients in a blender.
Blend on high for 1-2 minutes, until thickened.
Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
