  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons plain (nonfat Greek yogurt)
  • 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 2 teaspoons poppyseeds
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Place all the ingredients — olive oil, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, honey, poppyseeds, and salt — into a mason jar.
  2. Shake to Mix: Screw the lid tightly onto the jar, then shake vigorously until the mixture is fully combined and emulsified, creating a smooth, creamy dressing with evenly distributed poppyseeds.

Notes

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a richer and creamier texture.
  • Adjust the honey quantity to make the dressing more or less sweet to taste.
  • Store the dressing in the refrigerator for up to one week; shake well before each use as ingredients may separate.
  • Perfect for green salads or as a dip for fresh vegetables.
  • For a vegan version, substitute honey with maple syrup and use a plant-based yogurt.
