Creamy French Dressing
This is my husband’s favorite salad dressing. Makes about 1 & 1/2 cups 🫶🏼

Ingredients:
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/4 cup cane sugar
1/4 red onion, diced
1/4 teaspoon salt
Fresh cracked pepper
1/2 cup avocado oil (or a neutral tasting oil)

Directions:
1. Add all ingredients into a wide mouth, 16 ounce mason jar.
2. Blend with immersion blender. (If you don’t have an immersion blender a food processor will work just fine).
3. Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
