Creamy Basil and Chive Dressing

Serves: 4-6  | 5 Minute Prep Time | 0 Minutes to Cook

Things are about to get pretty herbaceous around here. Thanks to San Antonio-based Uprooted Gardens, who made the most of the one sunny spot in our yard, we have a proper herb garden! We’re growing everything from oregano and basil varieties to chamomile, lemon balm, thyme, chives, rosemary, and oh, all the parsley. Of course, we went straight for the garden for our latest salad dressing recipe – a delicious blend of yogurt (make sure to use grass-fed plain yogurt for those heart-healthy omega-3 fats!), lemon, lemon zest plus fresh basil and chives. Blend in a small food processor or blender, and brighten up salads, grilled veggies, chicken, fish and more. Happy, healthy summer, everyone!

Instructions:

Blend all ingredients in a small food processor or blender, and enjoy! Store refrigerated for up to 5-7 days.

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup plain, grass-fed Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 2 Tbsp fresh chives
  • zest of one lemon
  • juice of 1/2 large or 1 small lemon
