Homemade Mayonnaise
Homemade Mayonnaise
One of the best and easiest ways to make any potato salad "heart healthy" is to make your own mayonnaise. You get the heart benefits of extra-virgin olive oil and skip the harmful vegetable oils used in most commercial mayonnaise. Using an organic egg in this recipe will also increase the omega-3 content of your food.
