– 1 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed for the best flavor)
– 1 tsp Dijon mustard (adds a nice depth)
– 1/2 tsp salt (I like sea salt for its mildness)
– 1 cup neutral oil (like sunflower or grapeseed, for a smooth finish)
– 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar (for that extra tang)

Chipotle Lime Vegan Aquafaba Mayonnaise

Aquafaba transforms into a creamy, dreamy base for this bold Chipotle Lime Vegan Mayonnaise. A game-changer for plant-based spreads, it’s surprisingly simple to whip up.
Ingredients
– 1/2 cup aquafaba (the liquid from a can of chickpeas, reduced by half for thickness)
– 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (adds a tangy kick)
