How to make keto blue cheese dressing
This creamy cheesy dressing just has a few ingredients:
- Blue Cheese - I used normal blue cheese but you could use other varieties of blue cheese.
- Mayonnaise - home made is always best!
- Sour Cream - this helps with the cream texture and gives a subtle sharp taste that goes well with the blue cheese.
- Apple Cider Vinegar - You could substitute this with lemon juice.
- Garlic Powder - This can be optional and you could always add it last and taste test the dressing.
- Salt & Pepper - Always an essential seasoning.
