Add your favorite herbs to the Homemade Herb Mayonnaise recipe and use it as a dressing atop a fish recipe or on a cold salad.
Extra virgin olive oil has a strong flavor, but is one of the only suitable oils to use in Phase 1 of the diet. When you reach Phase 3, experiment with some of the more neutral-flavored oils, such as sunflower seed oil or safflower oil. All oils are a one-to-one substitution. If using these oils, be sure to check their labels for “expeller pressed,” which ensures that no chemicals were used in pressing the seeds to make the oil.

- 1½ tablespoons raw apple cider vinegar
- ¾ cup extra virgin olive oil or virgin olive oil
- 1-2 tablespoons of your favorite freshly chopped herbs, such as basil, oregano, rosemary, dill, chives or any combination

- Stir 1-2 tablespoons of your favorite freshly chopped herbs, such as basil, oregano, rosemary, dill, chives or any combination, into the mayonnaise. Keep refrigerated.
