Creamy Herb and Lemon Dressing

This creamy salad dressing made with fresh herbs and lemon really livens up a simple tossed salad. It's not only a nice break from standard vinaigrettes it's versatile too. Try it on sandwich wraps, as a dressing for pasta salad, or a dip for raw veggies.

  • 3 tablespoons onion, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, quartered
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, roughly chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, roughly chopped

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 3 tablespoons sour cream

Preparation:
