Creamy Garlic Dressing

This Creamy Garlic dressing comes together quickly with Greek yogurt, fresh garlic, and olive oil blended into a creamy, savory base. The flavor is sharp, balanced, and versatile. Drizzle it over grilled chicken or pork, spoon it onto roasted vegetables, or toss it with whatever greens are on hand for a simple, satisfying salad.
