Time 15m

Yield Makes about 1¾ cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

½ cup mayonnaise, best quality such as Hellmann's or Duke's
½ cup sour cream
6 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
2 tablespoons milk (skim, low fat or whole)
1 clove garlic, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Process until well-blended and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.
  • Make Ahead: This dressing will keep nicely in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. However, it will thicken up quite a bit in the fridge; before serving, whisk well then add a bit of milk, little by little, to thin to desired consistency.

CREAMY GARLIC, PARSLEY, AND FETA DRESSING



Creamy Garlic, Parsley, and Feta Dressing image

We suggest pairing this garlicky dressing with mixed greens such as Boston lettuce and watercress, or drizzling it over grilled tofu or chicken for a light yet satisfying meal. If you prefer a milder dressing, cut back the garlic to two teaspoons. Recipe adapted from Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health, in Stockbridge, Massachusetts.
