Number of Servings: 12

Ingredients

    1/2 cup chopped cilantro leaves
    2 green onions, white and green parts
    juice of 1 lemon (3-4 tablespoons)
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    6 ounces nonfat Greek yogurt







Tips

If you don't have a food processor or blender, chop the cilantro and green onions by hand and blend with remaining ingredients using a fork.

Save time: Don't pick off each leaf by hand. Use a chef's knife and make short horizontal strokes along the base of the leaves and they'll come right off.


Directions

Place all ingredients except the yogurt in a small food processor or blender and pulse to chop. Add the yogurt and pulse to combine. Refrigerate for up to five days and serve cold.



Serving Size: Makes 3/4 cup, one tablespoon per serving

    Great! I added two cloves of garlic, minced very fine. A great tangy dressing/dip. I think it would even make a good sandwich spread, but haven't tried it yet. - 3/26/12

    I love this! I would recommend using 3 tbsp of lemon juice, not the full 4. Also, I substituted dill in for the cilantro and it's really delicious! Lots of flavor! I put use it with everything- salads, on top of baked potatoes, as a dip... you name it! - 6/12/12

    My yield was 1.25 cups. This is very good and had a nice bite. I made it exactly as stated. You could probably substitute lime juice for the lemon juice, maybe add some fresh minced garlic. But just as is, it's very good. Thanks for the recipe. - 3/25/12

    Great idea! However, why only use the cilantro leaves? Whenever I use cilantro, I use the stems as well. There's plenty of flavor there that's getting thrown out! - 3/5/12

    Substituted lime juice for the lemon for a more latin flavor. Very nice! - 8/19/12
