★★★★★  This really was easy. I made fresh tartar sauce for our annual fish fry. Everyone raved about it! Couldn't believe how much better it was than the stuff from a jar.

I am going to try some of the other variations too.

★★★★★  So easy - I made it in my mini-chopper. And I added basil. I see some grilled chicken sandwiches in my future tomorrow!
