Description

Simple, flavourful, and versatile Greek Yogurt Pesto Sauce makes a delicious vegetable dip, pasta sauce, salad dressing, or bowl topping. Whip up a big batch and enjoy it all week long.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup pesto (I recommend this Nut-Free Basil Pesto)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 large garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients in a bowl.
  2. Stir well to combine. If desired, thin the sauce with a few tablespoons of milk, especially if you’d like to use it as a dressing. 

Notes

Storage: Store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days. 

Ways to serve it: Use this versatile sauce as a bowl topping, a dip for pizza, veggies, or roasted potatoes/fries, a pasta salad dressing, or a green salad dressing. The sky is the limit here.
