Ingredients
Honey Chipotle Dressing Ingredients
- 1 Cup Greek Yogurt (or substitute your favorite plant-based yogurt to keep it dairy-free)
- 1 Chipotle Pepper (in adobo sauce)
- 2 Teaspoons Honey
- 1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1/2 Teaspoon Smoked Paprika
- 1/2 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 1/4 Cup Water (optional, use if yogurt is especially thick)
Instructions
- Blend: Start by adding all of your dressing ingredients to a high-speed blender. This includes Greek yogurt, chipotle pepper, honey, garlic powder, smoked paprika, kosher salt, and optional water. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth.
- Check Consistency: Stop the blender and check the thickness of your dressing. If it is too thick, add a bit more water to thin it out. If too thin, add additional yogurt to thicken.
- Blend Again: Blend once more until you reach your desired consistency, ensuring the flavors are fully combined and the texture is creamy.
- Store: Transfer the dressing to a covered container and refrigerate it. It will keep fresh for up to one week. Use it as a flavorful topping for salads, vegetables, or your favorite proteins.
Notes
- You can use plant-based yogurt to make this dressing dairy-free and vegan-friendly.

- Add water gradually to avoid over-thinning the dressing.
- This dressing can be stored for up to one week in the refrigerator.
