Dill Salad Dressing

When we were in Vermont, our Aunt told us how she made a dill dipping sauce for seafood. The recipe was originally a salad dressing but she liked the taste and used it for seafood. I really should make homemade dressings more since this dressing came out great and I'm not a great fan of dill. The original recipe was equal parts mayonnaise with sour cream and some dill. I didn't want such a thick dressing so I changed it up. 
Dill Salad Dressing
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp dill
1 Tbsp onion, grated
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
  1. In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise and sour cream.
  2. Add the lemon juice, olive oil, dill, and onion.
  3. Add the salt and pepper to desired taste.
  4. Mix well.
