How to make Avocado Mayonnaise

Avocado Mayonnaise is healthy replacement to the real mayonnaise. Avocado Mayonnaise is rich and creamy salad dressing with great texture and flavour. Its quite thick and it definitely tastes better chilled.

Eggs are an almost perfect food, so my first reaction to making mayonnaise without them is: Why bother? But I have to admit that, after a dollop of humility, I was cured of my closed-mindedness. If you like mayonnaise, then you’ll love this recipe that uses avocado instead of eggs.

Due to their silky texture and fat content, avocados mimic the mouth feel of egg-based mayonnaise. If you can’t or won’t eat eggs because of dietary restrictions, this easy-to-prepare condiment will be a welcome addition to your kitchen repertoire.
