Ingredients
- 1 cup Non-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 1 ounce Grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.
Whisk the mixture until smooth and creamy. If the dressing feels too thick, gradually add the water, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
Taste test the dressing and adjust with more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as needed.
Transfer the dressing to a clean jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Drizzle the dressing over a fresh Caesar salad, toss to combine, and enjoy a guilt-free, flavorful meal!
