In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the low-fat Greek yogurt and low-sugar ketchup.
Stir the yogurt and ketchup until they are fully combined and smooth.
Fold in the dill pickle relish, being careful not to overmix.
Add the white vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to incorporate all the seasonings evenly.
If you like a bit of heat, add a few drops of hot sauce and mix thoroughly. This step is optional.
For a thinner consistency, gradually add water, one teaspoon at a time, until the desired thickness is achieved.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasonings (salt, pepper, or vinegar) if needed.
Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled over salads, as a dip for vegetables, or as a spread for sandwiches or wraps.
