Green Goddess Dressing (Low Fat) image

This Bon Appétit Magazine recipe (March 2002) packs a lot of flavour but is very low in calories. It is great on green salads, sliced tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs, or as a dip. You can substitute the yogurt for nonfat sour cream. Makes about 1 1/4 cups. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

I made this dressing for a picnic and it was a disaster. It was too runny and didn't hold up well in the heat.

This dressing is a bit too tangy for my taste. I added a little bit of honey to sweeten it up.

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I substituted parsley in this recipe. It still turned out great.
