Blue Cheese Salad Dressing
This can be used as an all-purpose dressing or dip. Keep it on hand for special occasions or last-minute guests. Try adding chopped anchovies to a portion of the dressing and pour it over celery stalks. Or add chopped green onions and pour it over baked potatoes. Low-fat mayonnaise and fat-free sour cream dramatically reduce the calories and fat, and allow a generous amount of blue cheese.
1 cup low-fat mayonnaise 2 tablespoons cider vinegar 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1 (8-ounce) carton fat-free sour cream 1 garlic clove, crushed 1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled blue cheese
Combine first 8 ingredients, stirring with a whisk. Stir in cheese. Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours.
Yield: 2 1/2 cups (serving size: 1 tablespoon)
