A spoonful of classic mayonnaise can add an extra 100 calories and 10 grams of fat to whatever you mix it with.
Unfortunately, regular mayo ranks among the worst of the condiment offenders, but in truth, even non-fat varieties of mayo aren?t a whole lot better considering the sugar and preservatives they contain.
Your best bet is to make a healthier version of mayo yourself by blending Greek yogurt, lemon juice, mustard, pepper and spices. Greek yogurt provides a smooth, creamy consistency and it easily absorbs flavors you add to it, so a spoonful or two is sure to be delicious.
Make this simple swap and you?ll save more than 200 calories and 20 grams of fat per quarter-cup serving. Plus, Greek yogurt is rich in protein and calcium ? a big bonus you won?t get with traditional mayonnaise.
