- 1 teaspoon honey*
- ¼ teaspoon salt

Notes
White onion - swap for green onion or yellow onion
Sour cream - swap for greek yogurt (any fat content will work)
Jalapeños - If you are extremely sensitive to heat, start with ½ of a jalapeño. If not, start with one whole jalapeño. Add another if you want it to be spicier. I always start with a little and taste as I go. You can always add more!
Honey - swap for white sugar
Keep a spatula near by to scrape the bowl to make sure all of the ingredients are blended.
Taste as you go. You can always add more jalapeños but you can't take them away.
