How to Make Healthy Creamy Herb Salad Dressing

Art Poster Print Six Herbs by Jenny Frean Print Size 23.5 x 31.5 inches. Image Size 16.75 x 24.5 inches.Just because it’s creamy doesn’t mean it has to be fattening or unhealthy…

Just because it’s healthy, doesn’t mean it has to be tasteless and no fun…

I dare you to eat healthier and more deliciously – try this dressing on your next salad…You’ll be glad you did.

Type: Sauce Recipe
Serve With: Salad,on baked potatoes or as a dip – Perfect for Niçoise Salad
Prep Time: 5 min
Yield: About 6 servings

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Plain Yogurt – I prefer Balkan style; Don’t skimp here – get higher fat, organic
  • 2 tbsp Kefir – Or buttermilk; Did you know buttermilk is actually low in fat despite the name.
  • Juice of 1/2 Lemon
  • 1 tsp Mayonnaise – Use organic or homemade; I prefer Polish mayonnaise for taste.
  • 1 tbsp Chives – Finely chopped; or green onions
  • 1 tbsp Parsley – Freshly chopped
  • 1 tbsp Dill – Freshly chopped
  • 1 clove Garlic – Finely minced
  • 1/4 tsp Mustard Powder – or 1/2 tsp wet mustard
  • 1 dash Cayenne Pepper
  • Freshly Cracked Black Pepper – To taste
  • 1 pinch Sea Salt – To taste

Instructions:

  1. In a bowl, combine all ingredients with a whisk or fork until completely mixed.
  2. Taste test and adjust salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Serve over salad, on baked potatoes or as a dip and Enjoy!

* Tip: If dressing is too tangy for you, add 1 tsp honey and mix through.

This is a healthy dressing for any salad. To make it lower in fat, you may use fat free mayonnaise or no mayonnaise at all.
