Is it a sauce? Is it a dip? Is it a salad dressing? Well, it can be whichever you want! It takes less than a minute to make and requires only three ingredients - it's so easy!

When I decided to make this dip - I was clear about what the first two ingredients would be: full fat mayonnaise and smooth Dijon mustard. But how to get the honey flavor and sweetness? I thought about adding some standard low carb sweetener to try and get the same effect - or perhaps some honey flavoring?

At time of creating this honey mustard sauce I hadn't developed my own honey recipe yet, so I used Nature's Hollow. But I will use my homemade low carb honey next time!

How to Make a Low Carb Honey Mustard Sauce

After testing these three ingredients together, my favorite ratio was 3 parts mayo, 1 part Dijon mustard, and 1 part sugar free honey.

I love the balance between the tangy mustard, creamy mayo and the sweet honey! These ratios are how I have calculated the nutritional data for the recipe - but I recommend starting with a small amount (perhaps 1 tbs of mayo, 1 teaspoon mustard, 1 teaspoon honey) and seeing if that works for you. Then you can adjust it as necessary.

Just add the ingredients to a bowl, stir together, taste for balance - and you're done!

You're going to love it! It's really delicious over a crisp green salad, or you could use it as a dip for chicken bites.
