Ingredients You'll Need for Making Greek Yogurt Dressing

Yogurt - use plain Greek yogurt. Its thick, creamy texture and tangy flavor will complement the honey, herbs, and mustard really well.
Honey - to balance the acidity of the lemon juice, yogurt and vinegar. You can also use maple syrup or agave nectar.
Apple cider vinegar - will give the dressing tangy and fruity notes. Alternatively, use red wine vinegar or white wine vinegar.
Olive oil - a high-quality extra virgin olive oil will do wonders for texture and taste.
Lemon juice - freshly squeezed lemon juice adds a bright zesty taste.
Herbs - you'll need oregano and basil. We used dried herbs, but you can also use fresh herbs if that is what you have.
Garlic powder - this will add a savory kick to the dressing. You can also use fresh garlic cloves, but make sure to grate them finely.
Dijon mustard - provides a layered, nuanced taste to the dressing.

Tips When Making Homemade Salad Dressing

I recommend using full-fat Greek yogurt for a creamier and richer dressing. However, add more olive oil or warm water if you prefer a thinner dressing.
Let the creamy salad dressing sit for at least 30 minutes before using it to allow the flavors to blend. For the best flavor, make this recipe a day or two ahead of time.
Taste and Adjust. After mixing, taste the dressing and add more lemon juice, salt and pepper, if needed.
