  • Stir the dressing really well if you’ve stored it in the fridge. It can separate during storage, but should quickly come back together.

Ingredients 

Ingredients for creamy taco dressing in small bowls: greek yogurt, salsa, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, lime juice

Substitutions

Salsa: You can use any salsa with this recipe, but we like red salsa!

Yogurt: You can use nonfat plain Greek yogurt or full fat Greek Yogurt – either one is delicious!

Lime Juice: Use fresh squeezed lime juice for the best flavor. Lemon juice could taste good, but we haven’t tried it.
