Ingredients

Ingredients

  • ½ cup of vegan mayonnaise
  • 2 ½ tablespoons of ketchup
  • 2 ½ tablespoons of sweet relish
  • 3 teaspoons of minced red onion
  • ½ teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon of lemon juice
  • ⅛ teaspoon of salt

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, add the vegan mayonnaise, ketchup, sweet relish, minced red onion, garlic powder, lemon juice, and salt together.
  2. Mix Thoroughly: Stir all the ingredients vigorously until the mixture is smooth and well combined, ensuring an even flavor throughout.
  3. Adjust Consistency and Flavor: If desired, thin the dressing by adding a small amount of plant-based milk or water to reach your preferred consistency. Taste and tweak seasoning, adding more lemon juice, onion, garlic powder, or salt as needed.
  4. Chill for Best Flavor: For optimal taste, refrigerate the dressing for at least one hour to let the flavors meld. Overnight chilling enhances the flavor even more.

Notes

  • To adjust the consistency: Add plant-based milk or water gradually to achieve a thinner texture if preferred.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning according to your preference, such as increasing lemon juice for more tang or additional garlic powder for a stronger savory kick.
  • Allow the dressing to chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour; this resting period intensifies the flavors for a richer taste.
