Note

Store any unused dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Stir before using as separation may occur.

For a richer flavor, substitute half of the skim milk with buttermilk or use whole milk yogurt.

This dressing works well as a dip for crudité or as a topping for baked potatoes.
