Ingredient Notes:
- Mayo: We always use avocado oil mayonnaise because it has clean ingredients.
- Herbs: You can use dried herbs instead of fresh. We give the amounts in the recipe below. Note: Fresh dill is a strong flavor. If you’re not a huge dill fan, cut it in half.
- Greek yogurt – I used 2% fat but any will work. You can also sub in sour cream for this ingredient, if needed.
