In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the plain non-fat Greek yogurt and low-fat mayonnaise until smooth and well blended.
Add the finely chopped fresh dill, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley to the bowl. Stir until the herbs and spices are evenly distributed.
Squeeze in the fresh lemon juice and season the mixture with salt and black pepper. Mix well to ensure an even flavor throughout.
If you prefer a thinner consistency (for use as a salad dressing), stir in the optional tablespoon of water, adding more if needed until the desired consistency is achieved.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to your preference.
Transfer the dip or dressing to a sealed container and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve as a dip with fresh vegetables, use as a spread for sandwiches or wraps, or drizzle over salads as a dressing. Enjoy!
