This dressing takes top honors in our household! We have a few mayo boycotters in our family, but everyone loves blue cheese, so we use plain, nonfat Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise and it’s a big hit. We use it for dipping veggies, salad dressing, and always with spicy chicken wings. We also make a blue cheese coleslaw and potato salad with this dressing as a key ingredient.
The other benefit is that 6 ounces of nonfat yogurt have roughly the same calorie count as 1/2 ounce of mayo! Don’t get me wrong, I love mayo with certain things, like artichokes, but this dressing is a perfect dipper for artichokes, too! This is a no-brainer, especially since it tastes so great!
