- 1 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup Fresh parsley leaves, packed
- 2 tablespoons Fresh tarragon leaves
- 0.25 cup Fresh chives
- 1 large Garlic clove
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon White wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions
In a blender or food processor, combine the low-fat Greek yogurt, parsley, tarragon, chives, and the garlic clove, peeled and roughly chopped.
Add the fresh lemon juice, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper.
Halve the ripe avocado, remove the pit, and scoop out half into the blender with the other ingredients.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Stop and scrape down the sides as needed to ensure even blending.
If the dressing is too thick, add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more lemon juice or salt to taste.
Transfer the dressing to a jar with a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Stir well before using as separation may occur.
