Can you make it without mayonnaise?
The mayonnaise in this honey mustard dipping sauce helps to make it creamy and thick, without it you will have a thinner dressing or marinade. If you want to make this healthier, you can use low fat mayo, though this can result in a runnier sauce, otherwise sour cream or plain yogurt will make great replacements.
