Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 2 tablespoons low-fat plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 unit garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, combine the tahini and low-fat plain yogurt. Stir until smooth and well combined.

Step 2

Add the lemon juice and water to the tahini mixture. Whisk until the mixture is creamy and the consistency is pourable. If it seems too thick, add a little more water, a teaspoon at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped dill, and honey to the tahini mixture. Stir well to incorporate all the ingredients evenly.

Step 4

Season with salt and black pepper to taste, stirring once again to mix.

Step 5

Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning, if necessary. For more acidity, add a bit more lemon juice.

Step 6

Transfer the lemon herb tahini dressing to a serving container or jar.

Step 7

Serve immediately as a dressing for salads, grain bowls, or as a dip for vegetables. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
