Mayonnaise Substitute

Plain nonfat yogurt is a great mayonnaise substitute!

1 Tablespoon of mayonnaise = 100 calories, 11 grams fat
1 Tablespoon of plain nonfat yogurt = 7 calories, 0 grams fat

Yogurt also has more nutritional value than mayo!

Yogurt is a good source of protein and calcium, and yogurt with live, active cultures may aid digestion.

Use yogurt as a substitute for mayonnaise in "creamy" salads like tuna salad, chicken salad, and egg salad.

Note: If you hate to eat yogurt straight from the carton, don't worry...you probably won't mind it when it's mixed up as part of a recipe.

Tasty Mayo Substitute Tip

Mix plain nonfat yogurt + mustard (honey mustard, Dijon mustard, horseradish mustard, etc.) for an even tastier mayonnaise substitution!

If you keep a small carton of plain yogurt mixed with mustard in the refrigerator at all times, you'll always have a quick mayo substitute for use on sandwiches.

Choosing plain, nonfat Greek yogurt as a substitute for mayonnaise further improves the nutritional value of your final recipe in addition to reducing the fat and calories!
