Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy.

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice if desired.

Step 5

Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. (This step is optional but recommended.)
