Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Plain non-fat Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup Crumbled blue cheese
- 2 tablespoons Buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon White wine vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Chives (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, blue cheese, and buttermilk. Use a fork or whisk to gently mash and mix the ingredients until the blue cheese breaks up slightly but still leaves some small chunks for texture.
Add the lemon juice, white wine vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir until all the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning if needed. Add a pinch more salt, pepper, or lemon juice according to your preference.
If the dressing is too thick, add an additional 1 teaspoon of buttermilk at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
Transfer the dressing to a serving dish or an airtight container if you are making it ahead. Garnish with fresh chopped chives if desired.
Store in the refrigerator for up to one week. Stir before serving as some separation may occur over time.
