About this recipe
Yoghurt Salad Dressing is my favourite dressing for my mixed salad. It adds the bit of fat my body needs to absorb the fat-soluble vitamins in the salad, tastes delicious and is made from scratch in 5 minutes.
I usually mix it fresh but you can prepare two or three portions and keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 days. If you use fresh garlic instead of the powdered version, just be aware that the garlic flavour intensifies over time.

Use vegan yoghurt instead.
Herbs
This is the most basic recipe. It’s also the one I like the most. But if you enjoy herbs, you can always chop up a few or add 1/2 tsp of your favourite dried herbs to the mix. Dried herbs need to soak a bit so the Yoghurt Salad Dressing will actually taste better if you leave it for a few hours or even until the next day.
