Basic Mayonnaise: Whole 30

This is an amazing recipe, very simple and comes out great! It excludes all preservatives and sugar (yep your mayo needs no sugar folks). So this is Whole 30 compliant! YEAH.

BUT HOLD YOUR HORSES- you will be tempted to just toss all the ingredients in your blender and blend away, waiting for the magic to happen.  It won't, you'll end up with soup (like I did twice), so BE PATIENT, follow the directions and you'll have a happy masterpiece! ;)

Makes 1.5 C

Ingredients

1 1/4 C Light Olive Oil
1 Large Egg
1/2 Tsp Mustard Powder
1/2 Tsp Salt
Juice of 1/2 Lemon

Directions

Place 1/2 C of the olive oil, the egg, mustard powder and salt in a blender, food processor or mixing bowl.

Mix thoroughly.

While the food processor is running, slowly drizzle in the remaining 1 C olive oil. After you've added all the oil and the mixture has emulsified, add the lemon juice, blending on low or stirring to incorporate.
