Description

Classic Blue Cheese Dressing made slightly healthier by incorporating Greek Yogurt. It’s bold, chunky, flavorful and so much better than store bought dressing! Serve with veggies.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 28 ounce container Greek Yogurt (I use Fage)
  • 2 tablespoons Vegenaise*
  • 1 teaspoon Vegan Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 ounces blue cheese
  • 1/2 cup chives, sliced thin
  • 2 scallions, sliced thin
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped**
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • water to thin
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Use a food processor and quickly pulse the blue cheese crumbles on high until it has been broken into slightly smaller chunks. Set the cheese aside and grab a large bowl.

    Add the yogurt and mayonnaise to the bowl and stir together. Then add the lemon juice, worchestershire sauce, dill, garlic, scallions and chives in with the yogurt until all the ingredients are fully incorporated. next add in the blue cheese and fold it into the mixture.

  2. Once the blue cheese and other ingredients have been added, you’ll see how thick the dressing is naturally. Depending on the consistency you like, add water. Start by adding about three tablespoons of water and with a whisk, mix the dressing mixture, adding more water until the dressing is as thin as you’d like. I ended up needing about 5 tablespoons of water for mine.
  3. Once the dressing is the consistency you like, add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste and if you like a bit of a kick, add a dash of tabasco sauce! Serve this dressing with you favorite veggies, drizzle onto a salad or dip crackers in it and Enjoy!

Notes

*You can use regular Mayo if that’s what you have, I just prefer to use Vegannaise and generally have it on hand.
**If you’re using dried dill, use twice as much!
