Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams plain low-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, ground
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the plain low-fat Greek yogurt and fresh lemon juice. Whisk together until smooth.
Add the Dijon mustard and honey to the yogurt mixture. Whisk until fully incorporated.
Stir in the minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, and chopped fresh dill. Mix well to disperse the herbs evenly.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, and stir until combined.
Gradually whisk in the water, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached. The sauce should be thin enough to dribble smoothly but thick enough to cling to salad leaves.
Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.
Transfer the sauce to a serving container or jar and use immediately, or refrigerate for up to 3 days.
