Add a burst of flavour to your salad with this simple, nutritious, creamy basil dressing recipe. Made with fresh ingredients, it is perfect for healthy eating options.

Learn how to make a creamy basil herb dressing recipe

This is one of the recipes that evolved over time and became one of my favorites. I took inspiration from creamy avocado cilantro dressing, but with this salad dressing recipe, I occasionally mix the herbs and amounts, depending on what you have on hand and what season you need. I once served it on roasted corn for a corn salad. Very good! It’s one of my go-to things and my favorite thing to date.

I used this fresh basil salad dressing once for my BLT pasta salad and have not used any other dressings since. It’s so bright and fresh, and the perfect creaminess and passionate flavour for that pasta salad recipe. Scroll to the section below for more information on how to use this dressing recipe.

Creamy Basil Dressing Ingredients

This creamy basil salad dressing is the perfect blend of fresh, vibrant herbs and smooth, rich flavors. Made with simple yet delicious ingredients, it brings a burst of aromatic basil combined with the creaminess of Greek yogurt and mayonnaise. Here is a list of the ingredients you need to make this fun dressing.

Plain Greek Yogurt: Brighten the dressing a little and add some great protein. Alternative: Sour cream mayonnaise: Increases creaminess and gives the dressing a little sour taste. Buttermilk: Thinen the dressing while keeping the dressing tangy and fresh. Fresh herbs: Basil, parsley, dill, chives – everything must be fresh and there are no other options here. Worcestershire Sauce: Adds dressing and tasty Umami undertones to the sour taste. Seasonings: Garlic powder, Onion powder, Kosher salt, Black pepper

Measurements for each ingredient can be found on the recipe card at the end of the post.

Storage Tips

Extra salad dressing should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge. My favorite way to save it is in a mason jar with a lid. Keep in the fridge for up to 5 days.
