This Sylvie’s Salad Dressing offers a lighter, creamier alternative to traditional oil-based vinaigrettes. By blending plain yogurt with light olive oil and a dual-mustard blend of brown and Dijon, you get a sauce that is both rich and bright. The fresh lemon juice cuts through the creaminess, creating a balanced, zesty flavor profile that clings beautifully to salad leaves. It&# 226;ÂÂs perfect for tossing with mixed greens, spinach, or even as a dip for raw vegetables. Quick to whip up with pantry staples, this dressing adds a sophisticated French touch to everyday meals without the heavy calorie count.

Storage: Keep leftover dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir well before using as separation may occur.
Substitutions: Greek yogurt can be used for a thicker consistency. If you prefer a less tangy flavor, reduce the amount of mustard or lemon juice slightly.
