Step away from ordinary mayonnaise and try this slightly spicy version flavored with mint and cilantro. It is delicious on sandwiches, wraps, and as a condiment for lamb, pork, and chicken.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup loosely-packed fresh mint leaves
  • 1/2 cup loosely-packed fresh cilantro
  • 2 Tablespoons fresh parsley leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 Tablespoons chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise

Preparation:

Place mint, cilantro, parsley, red pepper flakes, and onion in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Process until minced. Add vinegar and mayonnaise to the bowl and pulse until combined. Do not over-process or the mixture will break. Refrigerate any leftovers and use within 3 days.
