Preparation time
5 minutes

Yield:
Approximately 2 cups (500 mL)

INGREDIENTS

1 cup Astro Original Balkan Style Plain yogourt 250 mL
¼ cup dijon mustard 60 mL
¼ cup honey 60 mL
¼ cup cider vinegar 60 mL
½ tsp salt 2 mL
¼ tsp black pepper 1 mL
1 clove garlic, minced 1
¼ tsp onion powder 1 mL
½ cup vegetable oil 125 mL

PREPARATION

  1. In a blender or food processor add Astro yogourt, mustard, honey, vinegar, salt, pepper, garlic, and onion powder. Blend until smooth. While motor is running, slowly add vegetable oil.

ADDITIONAL NOTES

  • Make a Chicken Club Salad: toss together handful of lettuce leaves, a few cherry tomatoes, slice of red onion, chunks of cooked chicken, shredded Black Diamond Sharp Cheddar cheese, bacon bits and some Honey Mustard Dressing. Put this salad in a wrap for an easy on-the-go meal.
  • As a dip for vegetables, spread for sandwiches, dressing or marinade.
  • Replace Astro Original Balkan Style Plain yogourt for any other Astro Plain yogourt. Using a lower fat yogourt will result in a thinner dressing.
  • Replace Astro yogourt with drained Astro yogourt for a thicker, creamier dressing. Place 2 cups (500 mL) of Astro yogourt in a coffee filter or cheesecloth-lined strainer. Let stand over a bowl for about 2 hours. Discard accumulated liquid. Measure required drained yogourt. Any remaining drained Astro yogourt can be kept covered and refrigerated for up to one week.
  • Replace Dijon mustard for another mustard for a slightly different flavour.
