Method
- Wash the herbs and spinach well.
- Roughly chop the spring onion and halve the avocado.
- Place the Greek yoghurt, spinach, avocado, basil, parsley, spring onion, lemon juice, sea salt and pepper into a high-speed blender.
- Blend until smooth, creamy, and vibrant green. Add a splash of water to adjust the consistency to your liking.
- Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning — a little extra lemon juice for brightness or salt for depth.
- Use immediately or transfer to an airtight jar and store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Chef’s Notes & Inspiration
This dressing is incredibly versatile — think of it as your go-to all-purpose green sauce.
Drizzle over salads, roasted vegetables, or grilled fish.
Spoon over chicken, tofu, or nourishing salad bowls.
Use as a dip for crunchy vegetables.
Thin with a little water or lemon juice for a lighter dressing for lettuce. Plant-Based Alternatives (Dairy-Free Options)
If you prefer a plant-based version, simply replace the yoghurt with:
Unsweetened coconut yoghurt (thick and creamy)
Almond milk and a splash of olive oil.
Silken tofu (for a higher protein, neutral flavour option)
Soaked cashews blended with water and lemon juice (for a rich, creamy finish) I also love to add 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast flakes to plant versions. Each option creates a slightly different flavour profile, but all are equally delicious and nourishing.
