Eggless Mayonnaise

1 cup raw almonds
3/4 cup spring water
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt substitute
2 tablespoons raw honey (may sub. regular honey) juice of 1 lemon
1 cup vegetable oil (corn, canola, safflower), as necessary

Make almond milk by combining the almonds with the spring water in a blender and liquefy the combination. The blender may have to run for several minutes. One cup of unflavored soy milk may be substituted for the almond milk.

In a food processor, add the almond milk or soy milk, onion powder, salt substitute, honey, and lemon juice. Process with the "S" blade or whisk for 30 seconds. Slowly add the oil. The mixture will begin to thicken. Add oil slowly, ONLY until mixture is the consistency of mayonnaise. Longer processing will result in thicker mayonnaise.

Makes about 2 1/2 cups.
