Sometimes it’s fun to go out to eat at fast food places like McDonald’s…but, then again, the food isn’t the healthiest for you. That’s why I love this homemade, copycat Big Mac! I know what I’m putting in it and know that it’s healthier for me then the real thing…plus, I think it tastes better. 😉 Enjoy..

Do you know how long the sauce can be kept in the fridge? Does it need used right away or is it good for a while? My daughter LOVES their special sauce and would love to eat it on every burger!
It should keep as long as any other dressings. It is essentially thousand island dressing but add a few extra tsp of sweet relish to it. We use it ALL the time.
