- DRESSING: In a separate bowl, add the mayo, sour cream, honey, Dijon mustard, curry powder, lemon juice, and a generous (or to taste) sprinkle of salt + pepper (I add about 1/4 teaspoon salt & pepper). Whisk until combined and completely smooth. Taste and adjust for seasonings (salt, pepper, additional curry powder, etc.).

- SERVE: Enjoy with fresh mango, grapes, or a tart apple or layer it on a croissant and add some lettuce. Enjoy immediately.
