Avocado to Mustard: 9 healthy substitutes to mayonnaise
Greek Yoghurt
Greek yoghurt consists of healthy fats and other nutrients. There are about 60-80 calories per 100 grams of Greek yogurt.
Avocado
Avocados lack the same flavour of mayonnaise but it contains the same creaminess. One medium-size avocado has 160-200 calories.
Sour Cream
Sour cream may not be considered one the healthiest replacements for mayonnaise but it contains much fewer calories.
Mashed Tofu
Mashed tofu can serve as an amazing replacement for mayonnaise. It contains higher nutrients and lower calories. This option is also vegan.
Cashew Cream
This is made from soaked and blended cashews. The creamy and nutty texture makes it a great addition to sauces, dips and dressings among others.
Oil and vinegar
Although this will not work as a substitute in all recipes it can be used for creating lighter alternatives.
Hummus
This vegan option is extremely delicious. It has a creamy texture and and the best part is it can be made at home.
Pesto
This popular paste-like sauce made from pine nuts, basil, garlic, cheese and olive oil can be a good replacement.
Mustard
This tangy alternative to mayonnaise can be used in wraps and sandwiches. One serving of mustard contains less than 10 per cent of the calories found in mayonnaise.
