Ingredients

  • ⅔ cup Real Mayonnaise use avocado mayo or homemade if possible
  • 1-2 tbsp. Finely minced onion or pureed
  • 1 tbsp. Raw Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 tbsp. White Vinegar
  • 3 tbsp. Honey
  • 1 tbsp. Poppy Seeds

Instructions

  • Finely mince the onion using a sharp knife, or blending in a small blender until pureed.
  • Add the mayonnaise to a medium sized bowl.
  • Add the onion, apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, honey, and poppy seeds. Whisk until well combined.
  • Transfer to a pourable container and cover with an airtight lid. Refrigerate for approximately 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

Raw onion is a strong taste, hence why the recipe calls for 1-2 tbsp. of very finely minced (or pureed) onion. If you don't like a strong onion taste, opt for the 1 tbsp. of onion and see how you like it. You can always increase the onion later on, or decrease it for your next batch of dressing if desired.
