Green Goddess Dressing comes together in 5 minutes and is very versatile. It’s great for salads, over a steak, or a variety of other options.
Jump to RecipeI decided to give in to the Pinterest craze and try making my won Green Goddess Dressing. I’m not even sure why it’s called that. I get the green part since it’s a lot of green ingredients and the sauce is green at the end. But I don’t know the reason for the “goddess” part of the name.
Is it because it’s super healthy and makes you feel like a goddess? Maybe because it tastes heavenly? Either way, it’s a very versatile dressing. You could put this on a salad or over a grilled steak. That’s what we did with it. But here are a bunch of other ideas to use your green goddess dressing.
The dressing reminds me a bit of making chimichurri sauce. They have a very different flavor. But it’s a similar process and looks like it at the end.
Step by Step
Prepare all of your ingredients. This actually took more ingredients than I would think is in a regular salad dressing. But, in the end, they all come together to make delicious green goddess dressing.
Add everything to a food processor or blender. Process until smooth, about 1 minute.
Leftovers
Store leftovers in a small jar in the refrigerator. Serve chilled.
