Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup low-fat eggless mayo recipe below
  • 1 teaspoon prepared yellow ground mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons honey Bee Free Honee is a great option
  • 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice

Low-Fat Eggless Mayo

  • 1 12-14 oz pkg silken tofu, drained
  • 1 tablespoon healthy sweetener I use sucanat unrefined sugar or agave nectar
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar or fresh lemon juice
  • 1.5 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Honey Mustard

  • Combine a half-cup of the mayo and all of the honey mustard sauce ingredients in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Then, it's ready to be served on garden salads, pasta, bean salad, wraps, and sandwiches. I vote for dipping crispy oil-free french fries too! 

Eggless Lowfat Mayo

  • Open the tofu package and drain any water. If using shelf-stable tofu, which is my preference, there won't be much water. For the refrigerated tofu, you'll need to drain and then press all water out.
  • Add the mayo ingredients and puree until smooth and creamy. You will only need 1/2 cup of this mayo for the honey mustard sauce. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for about 10 days. Use it on sandwiches, wraps, and other recipes.

Notes

Tips & Suggestions:
  • Sweeteners- There are a couple of other sweeteners that can be used instead of honey (or Bee Free Honey) and those are agave nectar and maple syrup. These will change the flavor of the honey mustard a bit but are still terrific.
  • Vinaigrette- This recipe can be turned into a honey mustard vinaigrette for salads by simply adding approximately 1 tsp of apple cider vinegar.
  • Spread- I love to make fresh tomato sandwiches and spread this sauce on my bread slices and add a little salt and pepper. Yum!
  • Soy-Free option- If you need a soy-free mayo, try this cashew mayo from Shane & Simple.
A recipe that I use this Honey Mustard Sauce in regularly is Mary McDougall's, wife of Dr. John McDougall, Rainbow Bean & Rice Salad. It is an amazing dish and includes an assortment of beans, rice, and veggies. So it’s completely filling, whether eaten as a main dish salad or in a lettuce wrap.
