In a medium mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, buttermilk, and mayonnaise. Whisk until smooth and well incorporated.
Add the apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir to combine.
Fold in the blue cheese crumbles gently, mashing some of them with a fork if you prefer a smoother dressing. Leave larger chunks if you like a chunkier texture.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or pepper to taste.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Give the dressing a final stir before serving. Use it as a salad dressing, dip, or topping as desired.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
