This vinaigrette blends plain yogurt with Dijon mustard, maple syrup, and ground turmeric for a tangy, lightly sweet dressing with a golden hue. It coats salad greens or roasted vegetables well thanks to the yogurt's creamy body, and comes together in minutes with just a whisk. Serve it over grain bowls, roasted carrots, or a simple green salad.

- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
Method
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, olive oil, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar until smooth.
-
Add the ground turmeric, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper, and whisk until fully incorporated and evenly colored.
-
Whisk in water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dressing reaches a pourable consistency.
-
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or maple syrup as needed.
-
Transfer to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld before serving.
