Ingredients
- 240 ml Low fat plain yogurt
- 15 ml Extra virgin olive oil
- 15 ml Lemon juice
- 5 g Dijon mustard
- 10 ml Honey
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 1 g Salt
- 1 g Black pepper
- 5 g Fresh dill, chopped
- 5 g Fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the low fat plain yogurt to act as the creamy base for the dressing.
Step 2
Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while whisking continuously to emulsify the mixture. This ensures that the oil is well combined with the yogurt.
Step 3
Add the lemon juice to the bowl along with Dijon mustard and honey. Whisk them together until fully integrated. The lemon juice adds a tangy flavor, while the honey provides a hint of sweetness, balancing out the flavors.
Step 4
Stir in the minced garlic and season the mixture with salt and black pepper according to your taste preference.
Step 5
Fold in the freshly chopped dill and parsley into the dressing. This will give the dressing a fresh, herby flavor.
Step 6
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning if needed. You can add more lemon juice for tang, honey for sweetness, or salt and pepper as desired.
Step 7
Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container for storage.
Step 8
Refrigerate the dressing for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 9
Serve as a dressing over salads or use as a spread for sandwiches and wraps. Enjoy!
