Homemade mayo is so quick and easy to make! Who knew? Plus, you can make it with just a handful of affordable, recognizable, and heart-healthy ingredients. The avocado or olive oil base provides an anti-inflammatory benefit – just add egg, salt, lemon juice, and a bit of ground mustard for flavor. Blend and you’re off to the potato salad (or sandwich or macaroni salad or hamburger) races!
