    Austinite's Mayonnaise-Alternative. A good for anything Sauce

    So I've been trying to find an alternative for Mayonnaise. Mainly due to its high calories but also for a better taste.

    The ingredients:

    4 tablespoons of Sour Cream
    1 Boiled Egg Yolk
    1/2 medium Avocado
    3 tablespoons of Picante Salsa

    Instructions: Mix it.

    I've used both a fork to mix it, and a hand mixer. Either way works fine. This will turn out a fairly thick sauce. You can use less Salsa to make it "Dippable" or more salsa to make it runny.

    Macronutrients:

    Makes about half of a cup...

    Calories: 262
    Fats: 6
    Carbs: 16
    Protein: 10

    For my uses, I generally use 1 to 2 tablespoons. Which comes out to about 30 to 60 calories calories, which is less than mayo, more nutritious and tastier! I think I'll try and add some lemon to it next time and experiment with it a bit.

    I put this on Tilapia and it was great! Also egg salad, chicken salad and used it in a beef fajita. Tasted great on all of them. I pretty much used it all day, lol.

    Hope you like it!

    No real reason. I had boiled eggs already, I made an egg salad and used one of the yolks. It was actually hard boiled.

    Hi

    If one made this could they put it in a jar and not keep making it? if so does one know how long before it goes off?

    I haven't stored any longer than a day yet to be honest. I keep eating it, lol. Just look at the ingredient packaging and check expiration dates. Use the shortest one as your date.
