Equipment

1 Jar with a tight-fitting lid

Ingredients

3 tablespoons (45ml) olive oil
2 tablespoons (40g) plain nonfat Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons (30g) mayonnaise
½ medium lemon, juiced (about 1 tablespoon)
½ tablespoon (7-8ml) apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons (21g) honey
¼ teaspoon (1-2g) salt
2-2½ teaspoons (20-30g) poppy seeds

Instructions

Whisk together the olive oil, yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and poppy seeds in a small bowl until thoroughly combined. Alternatively, shake all the ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid until well combined.
Let it chill in the fridge for at least an hour, or until you're ready to use it.

Notes

Feel free to use maple syrup or sugar instead of honey.
Sunflower, avocado, grapeseed, and organic canola oils are good substitutes for olive oil.
This dressing will separate as it sits, so shake it well before using.
