Creamy Herb Green Sauce for Salad, Bowls, and Dips
By Tiffy Cooks
Every time I cook a dish that just seems like it needs a little more richness without extra , I make this Creamy Herb Green Sauce. This Greek yogurt and avocado-based sauce, packed with fresh herbs like dill, chives, and parsley, is great with literally everything! That refreshing, lemony tartness makes this sauce the perfect pairing for dipping both fried, crispy foods and fresh crudite. But, it’s also just as good drizzled over a salad or a savory rice bowl!
