Although I’ve been eating a paleo-style diet for the better part of three years, I never made mayonnaise until recently, 1. because we don’t eat sandwiches and 2. because I’ve never really liked dressings or dips. That all changed when I fell in love with an amazing chopped salad, which I decided to recreate. For the dressing, I needed some mayonnaise, so it only made sense to make my own!
Here are the simple instructions.
