Every good burger needs that sauce — creamy, tangy, slightly sweet, with a touch of pickle and spice.
This Homemade Burger Sauce hits all the right notes, but skips the additives and sugar overload you’ll find in store-bought versions.

It comes together in 5 minutes with real pantry ingredients and works on everything — burgers, sandwiches, wraps, fries, or even as a dip for roasted veggies. It’s fast food flavor made the Healthy Fast Food at Home way — clean, bold, and totally addictive.

Ingredients:

• ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt or avocado oil mayo

• 1 tbsp ketchup (look for no-sugar-added if preferred)

• 1 tsp yellow mustard

• 1 tbsp finely chopped dill pickles or relish

• ½ tsp garlic powder

• ½ tsp onion powder

• Pinch of paprika

• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Mix it up
   Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and stir until smooth.

2. Taste & tweak
   Add a little more ketchup for sweetness or mustard for tang — make it your own!

3. Chill (optional)
   Let sit in the fridge for 10–15 minutes to let flavors develop, or use right away.

4. Store leftovers
   Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.

Sarah’s Tips:

• Make it dairy-free: Use plant-based yogurt or clean mayo.

• Want a smoky version? Add a dash of smoked paprika or a tiny splash of liquid smoke.

• Add heat: Stir in hot sauce or a pinch of cayenne for spicy burger night.

• Meal prep tip: Make a double batch and keep it on hand all week for wraps, bowls, or dipping veggies.

Flavorful Conclusion:

This Homemade Burger Sauce is the easiest way to take any clean meal from good to “where have you been all my life?” It’s creamy, bold, and way better than anything you’d find in a takeout bag. Fast food feel, real food ingredients — right at home.
