Low FODMAP Creamy Herb-Parmesan Dressing
Creamy, herby, and bright with fresh lemon, this dressing is the kind of thing you'll want to drizzle on everything — salads, grain bowls, roasted vegetables, you name it. The combination of mayonnaise, lactose-free sour cream, and finely grated Parmesan creates a rich, velvety base that feels genuinely indulgent without any of the digestive worry. Getting that classic garlic flavor without the FODMAPs is often the trickiest part of a dressing like this, and garlic-infused olive oil solves it beautifully — all the savory depth, none of the fructan load. Fresh chives, parsley, and dill bring a garden-bright lift that makes every bite feel alive, while a hit of Dijon and lemon zest keep things sharp and interesting. A quick 30-minute rest in the fridge lets all those flavors meld together into something that tastes like it came from a proper restaurant kitchen. This recipe makes 8 servings, so it's perfect for meal prepping at the start of the week and having a reliable, gut-friendly dressing ready to go every day.
