In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt and 1/2 cup of low-fat buttermilk. Whisk together until smooth.
Finely chop fresh dill to measure 3 tablespoons and add to the yogurt mixture.
Add 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1 tablespoon of dried parsley, and 1 tablespoon of dried chives to the bowl.
Squeeze 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice into the mixture and stir to combine.
Add 1 teaspoon of honey and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, tasting the dressing and adjusting the seasoning as desired.
Whisk all ingredients together until well-blended and smooth.
Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Shake or stir the dressing before serving. Use as a salad dressing, dip, or sandwich spread.
