Aioli is a sauce that's usually made of garlic and Mayonnaise or olive oil. That can be a bit strong flavored. As an alternate, try my chive (dill or cilantro) aioli!

Terri's Tips:
- Dollop on top of baked potato, fish, or mixed grilled vegetables
- Make cilantro or dill cream by substituting chives for cilantro or dill respectively and lemon juice for lime juice
- Add a new spin by using Ranch dressing instead of sour cream and mayonnaise. Make traditional aioli by combining 2/3 cup mayonnaise and 2 minced garlic cloves.
