5-Minute Creamy Salad Dressing
SODIUM COUNT: 44 mg per serving (2 Tablespoons); 440 mg in the entire recipe
- Prep Time: 5 minutes
- Total Time: 5 minutes
- Yield: 10 1x
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ounces goat cheese*
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- ¼ cup mayonnaise**
- ¼ to ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper ((to taste))
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 4–6 Tbsp water
Instructions
- In a small bowl, soften the goat cheese by warming it in the microwave in ten second intervals. This makes the goat cheese creamy and stir-able. You can skip this step if you don’t mind having to stir the dressing a little more vigorously.
- Add the sour cream, mayonnaise, black pepper, and garlic powder to the softened goat cheese. Stir until creamy. Stir in the lemon juice and 4 tablespoons of the water. If you’d like your dressing thinner, add more water 1 tablespoon at a time until it reaches desired consistency. (I usually end up with 5 tablespoons.)
