We’ve tweaked our favorite green goddess dressing. It has fewer ingredients, is easier to make, but is every bit as delicious.
Why we love this healthy green goddess dressing
It’s creamy without using any mayonnaise or dairy.The flavor is highly addictive. More than once we’ve eaten it by the spoonful.The shorter ingredient list means you’re pulling less out of your fridge and pantry. Give it up for less work!There is no sugar (or honey or maple syrup) in this recipe. Because why add something if it’s not really needed.The color is the most incredible bright green.It’s super versatile. While it’s obviously great on salads, we also love it as a chicken marinade, with potatoes or rice, or as a dip for veggies.
What is green goddess dressing
Green goddess salad dressing was first served at San Francisco’s Palace Hotel in 1923. The original version is mostly mayonnaise and sour cream that was made green with a little parsley and flavored with anchovies. While it’s delicious, we love our healthier version.

How to serve green goddess dressing
We like this green dressing best on a salad made with crispy lettuce (think romaine, butter, or iceberg lettuce) with lots of veggies. If you’re serving it on baby greens or arugula, be careful not to add too much dressing as it can weigh down the delicate leaves. But this recipe is good for more than just salad! It’s the chicken marinade that we use in our Green Goddess Chicken recipe. It’s also delicious served spooned over salmon, mixed into rice, or used as a dip for roast potatoes. No matter how you serve it, it will add a ton of delicious flavor to your meal!
