The Old Empty Mayo Jar Dressing Trick

[Shel_B]

This is one of many food-conserving and thrifty tricks I learned from my parents and grandparents: making a salad dressing from the dregs of a mayonnaise jar. I was pleasantly surprised to see it turn up in a You Tube video. Maybe you'll find it useful, perhaps it'll give you some ideas or motivate you to post some similar tricks you use.

Why didn't you post this 2 days ago? I just threw away a mayonnaise jar and it's now in the bottom of my garbage. I'm not going bin diving, thank you.

I’ve done it with mustard.

Like @MetsFan5, I do it with mustard frequently. Well, more frequently when I was going through mustard faster.

I always make dressing with the leftover mayonnaise in squeeze type bottles. It's almost impossible to get all of it out and it's a good way to save what is in there.
