This healthy homemade Big Mac sauce recipe is the perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavor! Is has a creamy consistency just like the real thing and you only need a few ingredients. I like to add it to burger bowls, a chopped salad, or on turkey burgers for Big Mac flavors right at home!

Notes

Expert Tips
  • Use full fat Greek yogurt to make it extra creamy like the real deal!
  • Use a good quality of mayo. I like to use one made with extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil because they are slightly lower in saturated fats than regular mayo.
  • Look for a ketchup without added sugars. I use Primal Kitchen's brand.
Storage 
  • Refrigerator - Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up 3-4 days.
Dietitian Tip
Making homemade salad sauce recipes like this healthy Big Mac sauce is as easy as mixing a few ingredients! And using Greek yogurt to replace some of the mayo mimics the consistency and adds protein to keep you full for longer.
