Greek Yogurt Dressing

Greek Yogurt Dressing is a creamy, tangy dressing made from strained yogurt often used in Mediterranean and modern Western cooking as a lighter alternative to mayonnaise-based dressings and coleslaw sauces. It’s commonly flavored with herbs, citrus or dill and used on salads, as a dip, or mixed into slaws. Nutrition-wise, Greek Yogurt Dressing is relatively rich and creamy, providing about 13g of fat per 100g while also contributing some protein from the yogurt base; it tends to supply more monounsaturated fats and vitamin E than many other creamy dressings. It can also be a source of omega-3s and delivers more protein than a typical oil-based dressing, though it offers little fiber. From a health standpoint, this type of dressing is generally a better choice than full-fat, mayo-style dressings because of its favorable fat profile and decent protein quality, but it can still be relatively high in fat and sodium depending on the recipe, and it provides limited antioxidant phytochemicals compared with vegetable-based condiments.Read more
