Notes

Vegan Option: Substitute 1 cup of raw cashews and ½ cup of water for the yogurt. Blend all ingredients—except the herbs—in a high-speed blender until smooth and creamy. Add the herbs last and pulse to combine. If the dressing is too thick, adjust with a splash of water or extra olive oil. This version requires a blender, as a food processor won't achieve the same creamy texture with the cashews.
