Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 3/4 cup low fat buttermilk
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 4 oz blue cheese crumbled
- 3 garlic cloves pressed
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp ground pepper
- 1/4-1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Combine the mayonnaise, buttermilk, sour cream, 3 oz of the gorgonzola, garlic, lemon juice and pepper in a medium bowl.
- Use an immersion blender (or blender or food processor) to blend all the ingredients together until smooth.
- break the remaining crumbles into very small pieces and stir them into the dressing to make the blue cheese dressing a little chunky. Optional: if you prefer your dressing completely smooth, you can add all 4 oz of the blue cheese before you blend the dressing to smooth.
- Season with salt to taste. Chill for at least 10 minutes to let the flavors meld.
- Serve on salad or as a dip for chips, wings, or veggies! Enjoy!
