What is Green Goddess Dressing?

Green Goddess is a salad dressing or dip, that typically contains mayonnaise, sour cream, chervil, chives, anchovy, tarragon, lemon juice, and pepper. Since chervil is almost impossible to find fresh, I have substituted Italian parsley. To keep my dressing lactose-free, I replaced the sour cream with Fage 5% Greek yogurt.

How to make Green Goddess Dressing:

Place all of the ingredients into a blender (or food processor)

and puree until smooth. I ran it through twice for a total of 1 minute and 50 seconds.

Don't worry, it will turn green!

Top your favorite salad greens or serve as a dip.

So delicious...So flavorful!!

Recipe Notes:

For Whole30/Paleo - substitute mashed avocado for the yogurt and use sugar-free mayonnaise.
For Keto - use sugar-free mayonnaise.
You cannot taste the anchovies, do not be afraid of them!
This dressing will last for about a week in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
