Greek Yogurt Blue Cheese Dressing

Lindsey Neumayer
Greek yogurt is the perfect stand-in for this classic dressing which usually uses mayonnaise and sour cream! Chunks of fresh blue cheese are the key to keep this lighter version satisfying, so don't skimp on the quality of the cheese!

Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt 2%, 5% or 10% preferred, but 0% will work
  • 1 lemon juiced, about 2 tbsp
  • 1 tsp honey substitute agave, or sugar
  • 1 clove garlic substitute 1/8 tsp garlic powder for 1 clove
  • 1 tbsp buttermilk powder optional, but recommended!
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • ΒΌ cup blue cheese use more to crumble in at the end if you like!
  • water optional, to thin out final dressing.

Instructions
 

  • Combine 1 cup of Greek yogurt, the juice from 1 lemon, 1 teaspoon of honey, 1 tablespoon of buttermilk powder (if using), and 1 clove of garlic in a mixing bowl or jar.
  • Blend ingredients until smooth with an immersion blender. You can use a food processor or a blender if you don't have an immersion blender.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste, and blend.
  • Crumble or roughly chop 1/4 cup of blue cheese, and add to the mixture.
  • Pulse blender briefly--use care to incorporate the crumbles, but not over blend them.
  • If desired, add additional crumbles of blue cheese after blending, so dressing is chunky.
  • Store in a mason jar or airtight container for up to 1 week in fridge.

Notes

If your dressing is too thick, you can thin it out by adding 1 TBSP of water at a time until you get the desired consistency.
