Ingredients
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice from one lemon
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup plain whole milk Greek yogurt
⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup fresh chopped dill or ½ teaspoon dried dill
¾ cup crumbled feta cheese
Instructions
- Combine the liquids: In a medium bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, white wine vinegar, and maple syrup until well combined.
- Add the garlic: Stir in the minced garlic into the liquid mixture.
- Add Greek yogurt and olive oil: Add the Greek yogurt and whisk until smooth. Gradually drizzle in the olive oil while whisking to create a creamy emulsified dressing.
- Season: Stir in salt, black pepper, and chopped dill (or dried dill).
- Add the feta: Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese, making sure it’s evenly distributed.
- Taste and adjust: Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more maple syrup for sweetness or lemon juice for acidity if desired.
- Serve: Drizzle the dressing over your favorite salad or use as a dip for veggies or pita bread.
Notes
For a vegan version, use dairy-free yogurt and omit the feta or use a vegan feta alternative.
If you prefer a thicker dressing, use more Greek yogurt or less olive oil.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.
