Sweet strawberries blended with fresh orange juice and plain Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy. This strawberry citrus yogurt dressing tastes amazing with fresh salads, especially ones with seasonal fruits.
It’s been such an incredible weekend full of celebration. Both of my younger sisters, Angela and Victoria, graduated, one on Friday morning and the other on Saturday. It was back to back graduations for us so we all took time off from work and made it a long weekend. After each of the graduations, we took family and friends out to lunch. Then, it was totally nap time. Waking up early, sitting through long speeches, and eating lots of good food = late afternoon nap time.
It was such a fun weekend. And I’m soo not looking forward to going back to work after all the festivities.
And in two weeks, we’re doing it all over again when our cousin graduates from SF State.
How was your weekend? Hopefully it was just as wonderful as mine. =)
I’m keeping it simple today with a super easy to make salad dressing.
This strawberry citrus yogurt dressing is practically a smoothie. Sweet and tart, this creamy salad dressing is perfect on your favorite spring or summer salad. Sometimes that’s what I’m looking for in a salad dressing, something that’s simple and complements the flavors of the salad without overpowering the freshness of the ingredients itself.
In a couple days, I’ll share with you a recipe for the salad too!
I just love that this salad dressing is easy to make with ingredients that I already have. Of course, you can also substitute the fruit too to make this dressing more to your taste.
Add chopped strawberries, orange juice, plain Greek yogurt, honey, and a little bit of salt to a blender.
Blend all the ingredients together until they are completely smooth.
You can always adjust the ingredients to fit your taste buds. If you like your dressing thicker or tarter, add a little bit more Greek yogurt. If you prefer your dressing a little more on the sweeter side, you can always add more honey. There are so many ways you can adjust this dressing so that it works for you.
Drizzle this strawberry citrus yogurt dressing over your favorite spring or summer salad.
Enjoy!

This was delicious and exactly what I was looking for for a blueberry, cherry tomato and avocado fruit salad. Unfortunately, I didn’t have any strawberries or orange juice so I substituted raspberries and raspberry lemonade then added a little lime juice. Nectarous!
I’m glad it inspired you to make your own dressing!
The strawberry citrus avocado acai Salad looks very yummy. I might try this dressing but replacing the greek yogurt with a pure coconut yogurt instead of the dairy so it is vegan. Yum.
love this. thanks for linking it at #thewednesdayroundup – I’ve pinned it to my salad/dressing board – christine
Looks so delicious and simple. Looking forward to trying this dressing out. You come up with the most fabulous recipes! 🙂
Gives me inspiration to experiment with yogurt dressings for salads with fruit, thanks.
Love, love this colorful looking salad, and that creamy gorgeous yogurt dressing has a beautiful pinkish tint to it. I’d eat it just for how it looks, so delicate and fragrant I’m sure. Thanks for bringing this great addition to the Fiesta. Enjoy your weekend 🙂
