Notes

How to Serve

Low-FODMAP and keto salad dressing – drizzle on your favorite salad. It's amazing on a Kale BLT Salad.
Appetizer or party dip – serve as a dip for chicken wings or for your veggie tray
Sandwiches – slather it on a pulled pork sandwich
Steak sauce – serve as a thick condiment sauce for steak - so good!

Variations

Use lactose-free yogurt – in place of sour cream. It will be extra tangy, but so good.
Try different kinds cheese – such as gorgonzola, Roquefort, Stilton or feta for a tangier dressing
Make it sweet – if you like a sweet salad dressing, add a small amount of your favorite sweetener. You may want to add a pinch if you replace the sour cream with yogurt.
Play with herbs and spices – substitute the dill with tarragon or add some red pepper flakes for a bit of heat. Try adding some aleppo pepper (read about it in my Aleppo Pepper Ingredient Spotlight)
