Greek Yogurt Caesar Dressing at Home

You guys! I made the most unfussy, LIGHTEST and especially creamiest greek yogurt caesar dressing.

It was the lick-the-salad-plate kind of good. Which as well all know, is the purest sign that something is savory.

Since starting my healthy diet plan last fall, I’ve switched over to mostly yogurt based dressings because, typically yogurt based dressings are high in protein while being lower in fat and calories. After trying a few store bought versions that were simply okay, I decided I need to make my own. In January, I shared my greek yogurt ranch and I’ve been working on making a caesar version ever since.

In the summer we eat grilled chicken Caesar salads quite a bit. So it was imperative I have a speedy and straightforward, go-to recipe. My tip? Is always keep a container of this caesar dressing seasoning in my fridge. One batch of that makes enough for 4 (1 cup) dressings! It’s truly a time savor.

Making this creamy and dreamy dressing is as simple as whisking yogurt, mayo, lemon juice and the seasoning mix. All you need is 5 minutes. If that.

Here’s what you need To cook this Greek Yogurt Caesar Dressing:

• 1/2 cup plain, nonfat greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise (use your go-to)
• the juice of 1/2 a lemon – about 2 tablespoons
• 1/4 cup Caesar Salad Dressing Mix
• kosher salt
• water

First, in a medium bowl, measure and add the yogurt, mayo, lemon juice and Caesar salad seasoning mix.

Next, using a whisk, mix until combined. If you love a thick caesar dressing you can season with a couple pinches of kosher salt and serve as is. Otherwise, thin the dressing out with a few tablespoons of water.

Lastly, refrigerate until ready to serve.
