Steps
Heat the grill to 400°F.*
In a medium bowl, place the green onions. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt. Using your hands or brush, spread the olive oil to coat completely.
When the grill is ready, cook the green onions until charred on one side for about 2 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes, for a total of 3 to 5 minutes. Remove and set aside. Roughly chop the green onions.
NOTE: Watch closely because they can burn easily depending on your grill and size of green onions.
Add the whole30 mayo or regular mayo to a food processor. Then add the charred green onions, apple cider vinegar, pressed garlic, hot sauce and black pepper. Pulse to combine for about 30 seconds. Using a spatula, push down all the sides and continue to pulse for about 30 more seconds until combined but not pureed until smooth. Place in the refrigerator and set aside.

Michele Gray on 2022-04-20 (5 stars): Dressing is absolutely delicious.. I've made it several times and the only question I would have is how best to thin it down so it's more pourable?

Liz on 2022-08-06 (5 stars): This is my new favorite dressing and so easy! I don’t grill the scallions instead I just sauté in a pan until they are nice and charred. Delish!
