How to Make the Best Green Goddess Dressing
Green goddess dressing is a classic that deserves a permanent spot in your refrigerator. This vegan version swaps out the traditional mayonnaise and sour cream for silken tofu, creating a dressing that’s just as creamy and satisfying but with a lighter, healthier profile. The combination of fresh herbs, tangy miso paste, and bright lemon juice delivers a flavor that’s both complex and incredibly addictive.
What makes this recipe special is its versatility. Drizzle it over a crisp green salad, use it as a dip for fresh vegetables, or spread it on sandwiches and wraps for an instant flavor upgrade. The miso paste adds a subtle umami depth that elevates the dressing from good to unforgettable, while the fresh herbs bring that vibrant, garden-fresh taste that bottled dressings simply can’t match.
Best of all, this green goddess dressing comes together in just ten minutes with a food processor or blender. Make a batch at the beginning of the week, and you’ll have a delicious, healthy dressing ready to transform any meal into something special.
