Healthy Lemon Poppyseed Dressing

Teresa Ambra
Healthy Lemon Poppyseed Dressing is a fantastic poppy seed dressing with a twist! This one incorporates lemon zest. This healthy version eliminates mayonnaise and sugar and substitutes Greek yogurt and honey for a dynamic, but healthier version of poppy seed dressing. It's terrific for any kind of company or holiday tossed salad recipe.
