I’m starting to get the hang of these lifestyle posts, don’t ya think? π
We have a basil plant that I water everyday, so I decided to pick some and use it, especially because it was becoming overgrown with basil leaves! #GreenThumb
Here are the ingredients…
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup basil leaves
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Here’s how I did it…
1. Place all the ingredients into a blender.
2. Blend it up!
3. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
How easy was that? I personally love mayo. So I usually mix things with mayo all the time for a little twist. You can try this on sandwiches or even burgers.Β Have you ever tried basil mayo before?
Please let me know if you would like to see more mayo + “something else” recipes.
This sounds delish! I have mayo on just about anything! Definitely going to try this out soon.

You could probably do this with fat free sour cream or fat free cream cheese as well for a low fat versions. Great idea. Thanks for sharing!
