This creamy honey mustard dressing is made with greek yogurt instead of mayo and comes together in just 5 minutes! It’s tangy, sweet and makes for the perfect salad dressing or dipping sauce.
I love a good classic honey mustard dressing, but lately I’ve been obsessed with the Bolthouse Farms honey mustard yogurt dressing. Given my love for homemade salad dressings I wanted to take a stab at recreating this recipe at home and the end result was this creamy honey mustard dressing.
It’s nice and creamy and has the perfect balance of tangy and sweet. It’s seriously so good and has quickly become one of my new favorite homemade dressings to make. I’ve been loving it drizzled over my grilled chicken salad and these salmon meal prep bowls, but it’s delicious over anything!

Why You’ll Love This Dressing
- Healthier and cheaper – While I love the Bolthouse Farms honey mustard yogurt dressing, it’s still made with processed ingredients and preservatives so making your own dressing is much healthier. Plus, it’s cheaper!
- Easy to make – It can be whipped up in 5 minutes with just 7 pantry staple ingredients (plus salt and pepper).
- Versatile – This dressing pairs well with a variety of different salads and grain bowls, but it can also be used as a marinade or dip.
Ingredients Needed
- greek yogurt – adds creaminess and a slight tang, making the dressing smooth and rich. I recommend full fat Greek yogurt, but you can use low-fat or non-fat if needed.
- dijon mustard – can’t make honey mustard without mustard! I prefer using dijon mustard because the flavors are more robust, but traditional yellow mustard also works. Just know that yellow mustard does have more vinegar so you may want more honey or less apple cider vinegar to balance that out!
- honey – this is what gives the dressing the sweetness that helps to balance out the tang.
- apple cider vinegar – grab a good, high quality apple cider vinegar and one with “the mother” included. I like Bragg’s apple cider vinegar!
- lemon juice – adds freshness and helps to really brings out the flavors of the dressing!
- garlic powder – this is just for extra flavor. Feel free to use 1 clove of fresh garlic if you’d like instead.
- olive oil – I recommend using a higher quality extra virgin olive oil for salad dressings like this. Save your regular olive oil for cooking.
