Ingredients

Strawberry Balsamic Dressing

  • 1 1/4 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or substitute with dairy-free yogurt)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 tablespoon chopped onion
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Blend Ingredients: In a blender or food processor, combine the fresh strawberries, balsamic vinegar, Greek yogurt, olive oil, honey or maple syrup, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic, and chopped onion. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  2. Adjust Consistency: Taste the dressing and season with salt and pepper as needed. If the dressing is too thick, add water one tablespoon at a time, blending briefly after each addition, until you reach your desired consistency.
  3. Refrigerate to Meld Flavors: Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Before serving, shake or stir the dressing well. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Notes

  • You can substitute dairy-free yogurt to make this dressing vegan.
  • To adjust sweetness, vary the amount of honey or maple syrup according to your taste preference.
  • If you prefer a chunkier dressing, pulse the blender less for a coarser texture.
  • This dressing is great not only for salads but also as a dip or marinade.
