Gluten Free Non-Fat Gourmet Greek Yogurt Salad Dressing Recipe

Several weeks ago I discovered a salad dressing (do not recall where) and thought to myself, “Wow, I bet I can make a Greek yogurt salad dressing similar that that and save a ton of calories!” Well, I made it, changed a couple things of around. It needed a bit of sweetness and I was out of red onion, so I add a few pinches of stevia and some onion powder, and voila! – a great gourmet salad dressing!

Greek Yogurt Salad Dressing

Greek Yogurt Salad Dressing Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 cup gluten-free non-fat Greek yogurt (I use FAGE brand.)
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 1 teaspoon onion powder or 1/8 minced red onion
• 1/4 teaspoon or more sea salt
• 1 Tablespoon gluten-free Dijon mustard (I used Grey Poupon – contains corn and egg)
• pepper to taste
• 6 pinches stevia, or to taste
• 2+ Tablespoon filtered water

Directions

1. Add the Greek yogurt to a small bowl.
2. Peel and mince garlic, or grate. Add the salt to the garlic and smash the garlic in between chopping until it forms a paste.
3. Add garlic paste, onion powder, sea salt, mustard, water, pepper and stevia to the Greek yogurt and either blend in a tiny food processor or with a small whisk, until thoroughly blended.
4. Top your salad off with fresh ground pepper and sea salt, if desired.
5. Serve immediately or refrigerate for later use.

Tips

• If you use red onion you may choose to use less stevia, as red onion is bit sweet.
• Add additional water if you desire a thinner dressing.

Note

• FAGE non-fat Greek yogurt contains 120 calories per cup, versus 90 calories in 1 tablespoon of Best Foods Mayonnaise. You’re saving a lot of calories there!
