Ingredients

Salad Dressing Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup grated Parmigiano Reggiano
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1 small garlic clove
  • 1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 anchovy fillets
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 5 tbsp fat free Greek yogurt

Instructions

  1. Combine base ingredients: In the bowl of a food processor, add the grated Parmigiano Reggiano, fresh lemon juice, garlic clove, Dijon mustard, and anchovy fillets. These ingredients form the flavorful base of the dressing.
  2. Process initial mixture: Turn the food processor on and let it run for 15 to 20 seconds to blend and integrate the flavors smoothly.
  3. Add oil and yogurt: Add the extra virgin olive oil and fat-free Greek yogurt to the food processor, then continue blending for another 15 seconds until the dressing is creamy and well combined.

Notes

  • Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor intensity.
  • Adjust garlic amount to your taste preference.
  • The anchovies provide a classic umami depth, but can be omitted for a milder flavor or to make it vegetarian-friendly.
  • Fat-free Greek yogurt keeps the dressing light while adding protein and creaminess.
  • Store leftover dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
