Notes

  1. What is honey mustard sauce made of - honey, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, white vinegar, and spices.
  2. Is there a difference between honey mustard dressing and honey mustard - honey mustard sauce is thicker and uses mayo, while honey mustard dressing is thinner to make it easy to drizzle and often replaces mayo with oil.
  3. Is honey mustard healthy - honey mustard contains mayo, which is fatty, and honey, which has a high sugar content, so it is not considered a healthy sauce. Our recipe uses light mayo to help cut down on the fat content, making it a little lighter.
