Maple Mustard Dressing

Mila finally made her own video! I'm so proud of her in this one, I think I might tap out permanently. PS this dressing is mighty delish too - think classic Honey-Mustard, done plant-based. 5 ingredients, 5 mins, whiz it up!

Notes

To make sugar-free/ diabetic friendly: use the same quantity of yacon syrup or a pinch of stevia/ monk fruit powder. This will alter the flavour of this dressing slightly (remove the maple flavour), but it will still be delicious.
If you can't find shallots use 1/8th of an onion (although shallots have a smooth and sweeter flavour when raw).
If you can source an ethical, local, single-hive/homegrown honey, you can use this instead of the maple syrup. Avoid the store bought brands though as they often feed the bees sugar syrup and routinely kill the queen bees to increase yields.
You can also split the olive oil quality to ¼ c olive oil and ¼ c chia seed oil/ sacha inchi oil/ flaxseed oil for an omega 3 boost (this will alter the final flavour of the dressing, but make it an anti-inflammatory power house!).
