Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Extra-virgin olive oil
• 0.25 cup Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons White wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 clove Minced garlic
• 0.25 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Plain Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon Water (optional, for thinning)

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper until well combined.

Step 2

Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuously whisking to form an emulsion. This will help create a smooth and creamy base for the vinaigrette.

Step 3

Add the plain Greek yogurt and whisk until fully incorporated, ensuring the dressing takes on a creamy texture.

Step 4

Gently fold in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese, making sure it is evenly distributed throughout the vinaigrette.

Step 5

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if necessary. If the dressing feels too thick, whisk in a tablespoon of water to reach your desired consistency.

Step 6

Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.

Step 7

Serve over your favorite salads, roasted vegetables, or use as a dipping sauce. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
