All About that Dressing

I am a salad girl through and through. Growing up, we always had a green salad with dinner every single night. As I’ve gotten older, I don’t have a salad nightly but I still get excited when I get to dig into a big old salad.

My favorite part…the dressing. A good dressing can make or break a salad.

Dill Yogurt Dressing

This dressing has it all –

  • easy to make
  • simple ingredients
  • fresh herbs, garlic and lemon for flavor
  • Greek yogurt adds a bit of protein and has less saturated fat that mayo based dressings

Recipe Tips

This recipe is simple but there are a few tips for making it the best –

  1. I prefer full fat Greek yogurt but you can choose whichever yogurt you prefer
  2. If you don’t like the strong flavor of garlic, let your minced garlic sit in the lemon juice for about 5-10 minutes before making the dressing. It will help mellow the flavor.
  3. Fresh dill works best in this recipe but you can used dried dill instead
