- 0.5 cup Fresh chives
- 2 tablespoons Fresh tarragon leaves
- 0.5 cup Fresh basil leaves
- 1 large Garlic clove
- 1 medium Avocado
- 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup Olive oil

Instructions
In a food processor or blender, combine 1 cup of fresh parsley leaves, 0.5 cup of fresh chives, 2 tablespoons of fresh tarragon leaves, and 0.5 cup of fresh basil leaves.
Peel and roughly chop 1 large garlic clove and add it to the blender.

Pour in 0.25 cup of unsweetened almond milk and 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar.
Season the mixture with 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper and 0.5 teaspoon of onion powder.
Blend all the ingredients until the dressing is smooth and creamy. If the dressing is too thick, adjust its consistency by adding more almond milk, one tablespoon at a time.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning to your preferences. If desired, add a little more lemon juice for extra tanginess.
Transfer the creamy green goddess dressing to a jar or an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.
