Honey-Mustard Salad Dressing
This salad dressing is excellent on any salad. Try it with spinach leaves, sliced mushrooms and red onion rings. Use it to dress up a side of steamed green beans. Also makes a great dip for chicken fingers.
If dressing seems too runny, add a bit more mayonnaise. Or use Greek yogurt in place of mayonnaise.
