Ingredients

• 1 whole Garlic bulb
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 2 tablespoons Fresh basil leaves
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon White wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Slice the top off the garlic bulb, exposing the cloves inside. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the garlic bulb, wrap it in aluminum foil, and roast in the oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden.

Step 3

Allow the roasted garlic to cool slightly, then squeeze the softened cloves out of the bulb into a small bowl.

Step 4

In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted garlic, fresh parsley, thyme, basil, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and Greek yogurt.

Step 5

Blend on high, slowly drizzling in the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, until the dressing is smooth and creamy.

Step 6

If the dressing is too thick, add water 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 8

Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.

Step 9

Serve over your favorite salads, roasted vegetables, or use as a dip for bread or crackers.
