Basil Green Goddess Dressing
I made a batch of soup for dinner recently and I served it with a big green salad filled with veggies, but instead of our usual vinaigrette, I decided to make a batch of Ina Garten’s basil green goddess dressing. It took minutes to make and used ingredients that I usually have on hand – I love that. My daughter and I kept sneaking tastes of this delicious creamy basil dressing filled with lemon and garlic throughout the day and it just got better as the afternoon progressed. This basil green goddess dressing tasted absolutely amazing on our salad and we all agreed that it needs to be on regular rotation.
How to Make a Basil Green Goddess Dressing
Place the mayonnaise, sour cream, basil, green onions, lemon juice, garlic, and anchovy together in the blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Seal with a lid and set aside in the refrigerator to allow flavors to mingle until ready to use. Enjoy!

One of my favorite salad dressings but I am going to try it with the addition of the basil. Looks so good.
That fresh herb flavor must be such a bright spot during these cold days!
