Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Plain Greek yogurt
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove Garlic clove, minced
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Water (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the plain Greek yogurt, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Whisk the ingredients together until smooth and creamy. Make sure the olive oil is fully emulsified into the yogurt mixture.
If the vinaigrette is too thick for your liking, add water a teaspoon at a time, whisking after each addition, until your desired consistency is reached.
Taste the vinaigrette and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more vinegar for tanginess or honey for sweetness.
Transfer the finished vinaigrette to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
Shake or stir before each use, as slight separation may occur.
