- 1 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 medium Avocado
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried dill
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a blender or food processor.
Add the low-fat Greek yogurt, lime juice, and lime zest to the blender.
Add garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, salt, and black pepper.
Add the fresh parsley and fresh chives to the blender or food processor.
Blend all ingredients until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides occasionally.
If the dressing is too thick, add water a tablespoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more lime juice for tanginess or more salt to enhance the flavors.
Transfer the dressing to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve cold over salads, as a dip for vegetables, or with your favorite dishes.
