A vibrant and creamy Green Goddess Dressing made with Greek yogurt and a fresh herb blend. Perfect for salads, dips, or drizzling over roasted vegetables, this dressing combines tangy lemon, Dijon mustard, and a touch of honey for sweetness, all blended with an aromatic mix of parsley, cilantro, chives, basil, tarragon, and dill. It’s quick to prepare and keeps well in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Ingredients

Dressing Ingredients

  • 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
  • 3 tablespoon lemon juice (1 small-medium lemon)
  • 2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon pure honey
  • ½ teaspoon fine salt, or more to taste
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1½ cups fresh herb mix (parsley, cilantro, chives, basil, tarragon, and/or dill)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a small food processor or blender, add the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, extra-virgin olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, garlic powder, and the fresh herb mixture. This fresh herb mix may include parsley, cilantro, chives, basil, tarragon, and dill.
  2. Blend Until Smooth: Pulse or blend the ingredients together until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency without large herb chunks, ensuring all components are fully incorporated for a balanced flavor.
  3. Store the Dressing: Transfer the dressing to a clean container and refrigerate. It keeps fresh for up to 5 days, allowing the flavors to meld even more before serving.

Notes

  • Adjust the salt to taste as the Greek yogurt can vary in saltiness.
  • This dressing can be used as a salad dressing, dip for vegetables, or a sauce for grilled meats or roasted vegetables.
  • For a thinner consistency, add a small amount of water or extra lemon juice when blending.
  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor, but frozen herbs can be substituted if fresh are unavailable, though the flavor may be less vibrant.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 5 days.
