Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise (or vegan mayo)
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar (optional, to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon finely minced onion (optional)
  • pinch paprika or a few dashes hot sauce (optional)
  • grated hard-boiled egg (optional, classic style)

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise and ketchup until smooth and evenly pink.
  • Stir in sweet pickle relish, vinegar, sugar, onion powder, and garlic powder. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  • For added texture and depth, fold in finely minced onion and a pinch of paprika or a few dashes of hot sauce. For a traditional version, gently fold in a little grated hard-boiled egg.
  • Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the dressing to thicken slightly.
  • Stir before using. Serve as a salad dressing, burger or sandwich spread, or a dip for fries and veggies.
