Blue cheese dressing is a 5-minute creamy, tangy, and very rich in taste and texture dressing recipe. You can’t buy this blue cheese dressing in the most expensive stores. The creamy sauce’s bittersweet taste is perfect for coating salads and dipping fresh vegetables such as carrots, celery stalks, and cucumbers. The blue cheese dressing is one of the best and healthiest options whenever you are in the mood for a delicious snack. You get a healthy treat if you toss your favorite salad with the creamy sauce. If you dip some nachos or chips into the dip, you get a delicious snack to keep your belly happy during a movie night.

What are the ingredients needed to make a blue cheese dressing recipe? 

The ingredients needed to make a blue cheese dressing recipe are mentioned below.

  • 3-4 oz blue cheese: I prefer mild blue cheese like Gorgonzola and Danish Blue over strong cheese to make a blue cheese dressing recipe. Strong blue cheeses may be pungent, sharp, and salty. 
  • 1 cup sour cream: Sour cream balances the sharpness of blue cheese. You can also use yogurt instead of sour cream. 
  • ½ cup mayonnaise: I use light and regular mayonnaise. 
  • ½ cup parsley, chopped
  • 3-4 tbsp water
  • A pinch of salt and pepper
