Honey Mustard Dressing Recipe
Ingredients:
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup mayonnaise (optional for creaminess)
1 tablespoon white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon paprika (for a touch of smokiness)
Salt and pepper to taste
1-2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil (optional for a smoother consistency)
Instructions:
Combine Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise (if using), vinegar, and paprika until well combined.
Adjust Consistency: If you prefer a smoother, more pourable consistency, slowly whisk in the olive oil or vegetable oil until you reach your desired consistency.
Season: Add salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the sweetness or tanginess by adding more honey or vinegar, respectively, if desired.
Store: Transfer the dressing to a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Store in the refrigerator for up to a week. Shake or stir well before using.
Serving Suggestions:
Drizzle over your favorite salad greens.
Use as a dipping sauce for chicken tenders or pretzels.
Spread on sandwiches or wraps for added flavor.
