In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of low-fat mayonnaise and 0.5 cup of non-fat Greek yogurt. Stir together until smooth.
Add 0.25 cup of ketchup and 2 tablespoons of sweet pickle relish to the mixture. Mix thoroughly to combine.
Stir in 1 tablespoon of white vinegar and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, ensuring the liquids are well incorporated.
Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 0.5 teaspoon of paprika, 0.5 teaspoon of garlic powder, 0.25 teaspoon of salt, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper into the bowl and mix until the spices are evenly distributed throughout the sauce.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Some prefer a sweeter taste, in which case a bit more relish can be added.
Transfer the sauce to a jar or an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
The sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week. Stir well before each use.
