Tips & Substitutions
For a creamier dressing, consider using Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for a lighter option. You can also adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey and sugar according to your taste preference. If you're out of white vinegar, apple cider vinegar is a great substitute. Fresh herbs, such as dill or chives, can also enhance the flavor profile of the dressing.
