Sour Cream & Onion Salad Dressing
(Makes ~1 cup)
Ingredients:
- ½ cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt for a lighter option)
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp buttermilk (or regular milk/plant-based milk)
- 2 tsp fresh lemon juice (or white wine vinegar)
- 2–3 tsp F N Good Food Sour Cream & Onion seasoning (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp honey
- Salt and pepper (to taste, optional)
- Water (to thin, if needed)*
Instructions:
1. Combine Base Ingredients:
- In a bowl, whisk together sour cream, mayo, buttermilk, lemon juice, and honey until smooth.
2. Add Seasoning:
- Stir in the F N Good Food Sour Cream & Onion seasoning. Start with 2 tsp, taste, and add more for extra flavour.
3. Adjust Consistency:
- If the dressing is too thick, add water 1 tsp at a time until it reaches your desired texture.
4. Season to Taste:
- Add salt and pepper only if needed (the seasoning mix already contains salt).
5. Chill (Optional):
- Let it sit in the fridge for 30 minutes to allow the flavours to meld.

Why This Works
The seasoning mixes savoury onion-garlic depth with the tangy sour cream and mayo base. The honey balances the acidity, while buttermilk adds a subtle tang. It’s a nostalgic nod to sour cream & onion chips but in a versatile, salad-friendly form!
