Scale
Dressing Base
- ¾ cup Greek yogurt, 2% or whole fat
- 3 tsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ – 1 tsp honey
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- Water, as needed for desired consistency
Fresh Herbs
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh chives
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh dill
Instructions
- Combine Base Ingredients: Add the Greek yogurt, fresh lemon juice, garlic powder, and onion powder into a blender along with a splash of water. Blend on medium speed until the mixture is smooth, adding more water gradually to reach your preferred dressing consistency.
- Sweeten and Season: Add honey starting with ½ teaspoon and adjust to your taste preference. Then season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to enhance the flavors.
- Add Fresh Herbs: Incorporate the chopped fresh dill and chives into the blender. Pulse a few times to combine the herbs into the dressing without fully pulverizing them, allowing for texture and bursts of fresh flavor.
- Serve: Pour the dressing into a serving bowl or bottle. Enjoy immediately as a salad dressing or dip, or store refrigerated for later use.
Notes
- Adjust honey quantity depending on desired sweetness.
- Use Greek yogurt with 2% or whole milk fat for best creamy texture.
- Add water slowly to avoid thinning the dressing too much.
- Fresh herbs add the best flavor, but dried herbs can be substituted in a pinch.
- Store dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
