Green Goddess Salad Dressing

This green goddess salad dressing is inspired by many of the flavors that can be found in Thai cooking, as well as TikTok. Lol.

When made into a salad (which is what I share in the recipe card below), it’s like a super fresh and flavorful slaw that could be eaten all on its own or added to all sorts of things.

I topped a veggie burger with this green goddess salad and it was divine.

You could also use just the dressing for lots of other things like a sandwich spread, dip for crackers or pita, or smeared on top of a steak or a baked chicken breast.

As the name suggests, this is made with lots of delicious green ingredients, including basil, mint, cilantro, spinach, chives, and lime juice.

Green goddess salad dressing is VERY easy to make—you throw everything in a food processor or blender and puree. The final texture is like a thick smoothie.

As I mentioned, the green goddess salad dressing is great all on its own, but if you want to serve it on top of something (or as a side with a main dish) here are a few suggestions:

If you try this green goddess salad, let me know what you think! I’d also love to know how you serve it. xo. Emma

For the fresh herbs, you don’t necessarily have to use these EXACT measurements. But I wanted to give you an idea of about how much of each to use. If needed, based on what you have or your taste, you can alter these slightly. This recipe is inspired by Baked By Melissa’s Green Goddess Salad
