Green Goddess Dressing

March 25, 2024

Here’s a lactose free green goddess dressing for those of us who are unable to digest lactose. Green Valley lactose free yogurt comes in handy for all sorts of recipes such as bread, cake and even popsicles. If regular dairy products suit you, go ahead and use your favorite brand of yogurt. Using a good mayonnaise is essential in this recipe as is seeking out the freshest herbs you can find.

This is one of the easiest and tastiest dressings you can make. It definitely falls into the rich category of dressings given that its main ingredient is mayonnaise, so I make it for special occasions or when I have a produce drawer full of crispy romaine hearts.

For a stunning salad, arrange steamed diced beets and avocado over green goddess dressing.

A green goddess dressed salad with a side of sourdough bread makes a splendid meal.
