Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup plain full-fat greek yogurt (4 ounces)
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup finely grated parmesan cheese (21 grams)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dijon mustard
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons anchovy paste (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2-4 tablespoons water (amount depends on desired consistency)

Instructions

  • Make the sauce. Add all ingredients except the water to a glass jar. Whisk or use an immersion blender (my personal preference) until smooth. You can also blend it in your blender or food processor or just mix it by hand in a bowl. Blending the ingredients will give the dressing a super creamy texture. If desired, add 2-4 tablespoons of water to thin it out and mix again. Adjust according to taste.
  • Enjoy! Serve however you like!
