Notes

  1. You can substitute sour cream in case you can’t find plain greek yogurt.
  2. Increase or decrease the Jalapenos as per your spice tolerance . You can completely skip it if you don’t want spice.
  3. Greek yogurt is healthy and little sour.
  4. Quantity of Lime  juice can be added as per your liking .
  5. You can use Avocado in case you don’t find sour cream or Greek yogurt.
  6. This is a versatile dressing and can also be used as a dip or marinade.
  7. Stays good for a week in refrigerator in case it is left.
  8. It is absolutely lip smacking .
  9. I prefer to make small batches. You can make big batches and refrigerate.
  10. You can substitute honey with maple syrup. It will balance the flavors and will not make the dressing sweet.
