green goddess dressing

Looking for a go-to, healthy dressing that is packed with herbaceous flavor and is able to be put on anything?! And I pretty much mean anything… chicken, salmon, salads, veggies, meats… it compliments them all! Just gather up a large handful of assorted herbs and you’re already halfway there.

The recipe below are the herbs I love to incorporate into my Green Goddess Dressing, however, if you are missing some of them or have others (ex: cilantro) throw them on in or omit! As long as leafy green things are going in… it will be delicious. Also, if you do not have fresh garlic you can sub for a teaspoon or two of garlic powder. Lemon can also be substituted for another acidic ingredient like lime, orange or Apple Cider Vinegar.
