Low Fat Creamy Blue Cheese Dressing
Description
This dressing is made by mashing crumbled blue cheese with Greek yogurt until combined. Mayonnaise adds creaminess, while lemon juice and white wine vinegar contribute acidity and balance. Garlic powder enhances the savory profile, and fresh ground salt and pepper season to taste. The resulting dressing has a creamy texture with pronounced blue cheese flavor without heavy fats.
It can be used as a low-fat alternative to traditional blue cheese dressings and pairs well with green salads, vegetable crudités, or as a sauce for grilled meats. The recipe yields about one cup of dressing.
