Yogurt Lemon Dressing

Yogurt Lemon Dressing is a creamy, tangy dressing commonly used in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern–inspired salads and bowls; it pairs especially well with grilled vegetables, greens and roasted proteins. Often made from strained or plain yogurt with lemon, garlic and herbs, it's known for a bright lemon flavor and a thicker texture than vinaigrette. Nutritionally, Yogurt Lemon Dressing is an energy‑dense condiment with about 12g of fat per 100 g, so a little goes a long way — it also provides some dairy protein and typical yogurt micronutrients such as iodine and vitamin B12. From a health perspective, yogurt dressings deliver a high‑quality protein profile and can contribute beneficial dairy nutrients, but they are used in small amounts and may be higher in fat and salt than a simple oil‑and‑vinegar dressing, so choosing lower‑fat versions or smaller portions can make them fit better into a balanced diet.
