In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add 1 cup of low-fat plain Greek yogurt. This will form the base that provides creaminess with reduced fat content.
Add 3 tablespoons of Dijon mustard to the yogurt. The mustard is essential for the classic tangy flavor of the sauce.
Pour in 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to add a bit of acidity and depth to the sauce.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey to balance the tanginess with a touch of sweetness.
Sprinkle 0.5 teaspoon of garlic powder and 0.5 teaspoon of onion powder to enhance the savory flavors.
Season the sauce with 0.25 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper, adjusting to taste as necessary.
Whisk all the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. You may add more mustard for extra tang or additional honey for sweetness.
Transfer the mustard sauce to a serving dish. It can be used immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
