I love to cook, and I especially love simple recipes. Isn’t life too busy to wrestle with complicated dishes?
Usually, if a recipe has more than a few simple ingredients, I move on to something else (unless it happens to be Thanksgiving Day).

Although I don’t slather on the mayonnaise regularly, if I am cooking for a neighborhood party or a special family bar-b-que, this is my go-to recipe for dressing up sandwiches, burgers or tortilla roll-ups.
Lemon Basil Mayonnaise
1 cup Hellmann’s mayonnaise (use the real stuff…)
1/4 cup fresh Basil
1/2 tablespoon lemon zest
1/2 tablespoon chopped garlic
I doubled this recipe to serve with five dozen pulled pork sliders…but you can whip up a few tablespoons at a time as needed, adjusting the measurements to taste.
Combine in a food process or blender. That’s it!

Lemon basil mayo is amazing on pulled pork, roast beef, turkey or portabella mushroom sandwiches…
I think I could sell this stuff!
Happy Eating!
