Last night I made Green Goddess salad dressing, original recipe from Barefoot Contessa, altered by me based on what I like, my desire to reduce the calorie and fat content, and what I had in my fridge....
3/4 c. light mayo
1/4 & 1/4 c. plain yogurt
1 c. basil leaves (preferably from your yard!)
1 bunch chopped scallions (white and green parts)
1/4 c. lemon juice
2 tsp. crushed garlic (mmm)
1 tsp. coarse-ground sea salt
1 tsp. freshly ground pepper
3 tbl. olive oil
Add the mayo, 1/4 c. yogurt, basil, scallions, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper to your blender. Blend well. Add additional 1/4 c. yogurt and olive oil and continue blending. Chill or serve immediately on salad (I did romaine with cherry tomatoes and crispy onion pieces for crunch) or as a dip with crudite'.
Delicious.
