Instructions

1. In a blender, combine the Greek yogurt, basil leaves, parsley, chives, lemon juice, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper.

4. Transfer the dressing to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Tip: This dressing tastes even better the next day, making it a great make-ahead option.

Green Goddess Dressing with Sunflower Seeds

You’ll find this Green Goddess Dressing with Sunflower Seeds to be a refreshing twist on the classic, blending creamy textures with a nutty crunch for a dressing that elevates any salad.

Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh basil leaves, tightly packed and vibrant green
• 1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves, stems removed for a smoother blend
• 1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds, lightly toasted for a deeper flavor
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, thick and creamy for the base
• 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, freshly squeezed for brightness
• 1 small garlic clove, minced finely to distribute flavor evenly
• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, rich and fruity
• 1/2 tsp sea salt, finely ground to enhance all flavors
• 1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground for a slight heat

Instructions

1. In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the sunflower seeds for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until they’re golden and fragrant. Tip: Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
2. Combine the basil, parsley, toasted sunflower seeds, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a food processor. Tip: Scrape down the sides to ensure everything is evenly incorporated.
3. With the processor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the dressing is smooth and emulsified. Tip: This gradual addition helps create a cohesive texture.
4. Season the dressing with sea salt and black pepper, then pulse a few more times to mix. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, but remember the flavors will meld as it sits.
5. Transfer the dressing to a jar or bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to develop.
