Marie shared her recipe for lemon yogurt sauce.
Greek yogurt dressing goes well with any salad. With this sauce, even ordinary sliced cucumbers and tomatoes will sparkle with new colors. Vary the sauce with spices: herbs de Provence, ground pepper, paprika or granulated garlic.
The bright citrus taste adds pleasant sourness and a boost of vitamins to the sauce, and Provençal herbs add exquisite gastronomic notes. This sauce goes perfectly with vegetable salads, white and red fish and seafood (shrimp, mussels, squid), and baked chicken. It couldn't be easier to prepare.
- Yogurt “Greek TEOS”1 jar (140 g)
- Lemon juice 1 tbsp. l.
- Lemon zest 1/2 tsp.
- Provençal herbs to taste
- Mix Greek yogurt with lemon juice.

- Stir and serve.
What salads to combine with:
How to prepare a universal sauce for fish and meat dishes
Ingredients:
● natural yogurt – 300 ml., ● garlic – 2 cloves, ● mint – 2-3 sprigs, ● parsley – 2-3 sprigs, ● cucumber – 1 pc., ● lemon juice – 1-2 tbsp., ● Dijon mustard – 2 tsp.
Preparation:
- Grind garlic, mint, parsley and peeled cucumber in a blender bowl
- add yogurt, mustard, lemon juice to the resulting mass and beat everything
- place the resulting sauce in the refrigerator for a few minutes - serve with any meat, chicken or fish dishes
A light yogurt-based sauce is a good substitute for mayonnaise. Moreover, the result turns out completely different depending on what fat content of yogurt you take: - low-fat yogurt gives a more pronounced sourness and emphasizes the pungency of garlic - ideal for a fresh spring salad - higher-fat yogurt creates a rich consistency that is better suited for meat, fried vegetables or crunchy snacks
I chose my favorite greens, but you can replace them with dill, cilantro, basil, green onions, arugula or spinach. If the sauce is intended for fish, you can even add a spoonful of live spirulina to emphasize the “sea” note. Flax or sesame seeds, black pepper, a spoonful of aromatic oil or soy sauce will not spoil the recipe.
You can add a little balsamic vinegar and/or egg yolk to the salad dressing. I myself am happy to experiment with the original recipe - with just one or two ingredients you can turn a universal sauce into something unique.
Dietary sauces based on milk and dairy products
The first rule of any diet is the exclusion of so-called empty calories from the diet. These include sweet drinks, mayonnaise, white bread and sugar. These restrictions are justified because most of the listed products can be replaced with much less harmful ones. Dietary and lean sauces, sugar-free compotes and whole grain bread are an excellent alternative to your usual food.
By seasoning your dishes with dietary sauces, you will not only diversify the taste of your dishes, but also get additional vitamins. The fact is that most of them are prepared from fresh ingredients immediately before serving. And this is a guarantee of not only taste, but also benefits.
The choice of base products for making sauces is also varied. It can be:
- fresh, baked or stewed vegetables;
- fruits with a bright taste, most often citrus fruits - lemons, limes, oranges, clementines;
- Although the berries are not quite familiar in this quality, they go perfectly with lean meat, for example, turkey breast;
- fermented milk products - unsweetened yogurt and kefir go well with herbs and are suitable for dressing salads.
The most common vegetable base for dietary and low-calorie sauces is tomatoes. They can be prepared in a variety of ways: stewed in a saucepan, dried, pureed using a blender, or simply chopped. These are all a variety of dietary tomato sauces.
Recipes with photos of such sauces are simple. Let's remember the simplest and low-calorie ones.
- Tomato sauce with garlic and horseradish is a classic option. It's easy to prepare. Take ripe tomatoes, horseradish and garlic in the proportion that suits you, and salt the dish. All products are ground in a meat grinder or blender, and then the sauce is rolled into sterilized jars.
- Tomato sauce for spaghetti. Take two ripe tomatoes, a clove of garlic, fresh basil and oregano. Grind tomatoes without skins in a blender, add spices and salt. If your diet allows, add a little olive oil.
Various citrus fruits are most often used as a fruit and berry base to prepare dietary sauces. In addition, you can take sour berries - currants, cranberries, lingonberries. They have a bright taste and enrich any dish.
- Lemon salad dressing. You will need the juice of half a lemon, a teaspoon of Dijon mustard, a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and a dash of white pepper. Squeeze the lemon into the bowl, add the rest of the ingredients and beat until white.
- Lingonberry sauce for meat. It's very easy to prepare. Rinse the lingonberries thoroughly and rub them through a sieve to remove the skin and seeds. The sauce is ready. If desired, you can add a little brown sugar and white pepper to it.
Based on kefir and natural yogurt, you can prepare many tasty and dietary sauces that can successfully replace the usual mayonnaise.
Yogurt sauce for meat salads. Take half a glass of unsweetened yogurt, a clove of garlic, dill and salt. Chop the garlic and dill, mix with yogurt and add salt. This makes an excellent dressing for Olivier instead of mayonnaise.
A similar sauce can be made using kefir. In addition, you can add finely chopped cucumbers and add more greens.
If you are tired of eating dry boiled chicken breast, then you can try to diversify your diet with this simple chicken sauce. You will need these ingredients:
- tomatoes in their own juice. Grind them in a blender and take 6 tablespoons.
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard.
- 6 tablespoons of kefir.
- Salt and pepper to taste.
- A mixture of Provençal herbs.
All you need to do is mix all the ingredients and let the sauce sit for a while! This recipe is perfect with turkey and chicken.
Typically, all milk sauces are high in calories, which is explained by the content of cream and large amounts of butter. But we offer a simple recipe for Bechamel sauce, which can be included in your diet even if you are not on a diet. For this recipe you will need the following ingredients:
- 500 ml milk. We use low-fat milk. There are only 30 calories in 100 grams of this product.
- 10 grams of butter.
- 30 grams of flour. Instead of regular wheat, we use any whole grain.
- Salt, pepper and nutmeg to your taste.
Melt the butter over low heat, then add the whole grain flour and pour in the milk in a thin stream, stirring constantly. Your goal is to get rid of lumps. Cook until thickened. Then add salt, pepper and nutmeg to your taste.
This sauce is considered one of the most high-calorie sauces. In the usual classic recipe, it is prepared not only with cheese, but also with a large amount of butter and cream. We have selected a recipe for you with a minimum of harmful ingredients.
- 100 grams of hard cheese. Ideally, it is best to use low-fat varieties, then you will significantly reduce the calorie content of the finished sauce.
- 250 grams of milk. We take skim milk 1% fat.
- 25 grams of starch.
Mix all the ingredients in a container and place on low heat. Stir the sauce constantly and cook until the cheese is completely dissolved. You can add your favorite spices to the finished sauce if desired.
Caesar salad sauce pp
Contents [Show]
When compiling a New Year's menu or a menu for some other holiday, supporters of proper nutrition try to choose a recipe for not only a tasty, but also a healthy salad. Diet Caesar salad is an ideal option for pp-nivers. There are few differences from the classic Caesar Caesar: croutons (if any) are made from bran or whole grain bread, the cheese is low in fat, and the dressing sauce is a special low-calorie one.
This set of products significantly reduces the calories in the world-famous salad. Calorie content of 1 serving (300 g) is no more than 250 kcal. This makes it possible to include it even in the daily diet during a diet. Preparing the dish does not take much time, and the ingredients for it are readily available. I’ll share several options - they differ slightly in taste, but each is good!
Italian-American Caesar Cardini came up with his famous salad from ingredients that were on hand.
Unexpectedly, the dish quickly gained popularity not only in the United States, but throughout the world.
Since 1924, many variations of it have appeared.
You can find recipes with chicken breast and turkey meat, beef and venison, ham and bacon.
Many chefs replace meat with seafood (crab meat, shrimp, tuna, sea or river fish fillet) in their original versions of this dish.
For dietary recipes, you can also use Chinese cabbage or white cabbage instead of lettuce (traditionally romaine lettuce).
The meat is used boiled, baked or fried in a dry frying pan with a non-stick coating.
Pieces of whole grain, rye or bran bread are dried in the oven or in a frying pan without adding vegetable oil. They will replace the croutons used in traditional recipes.
There is also a Caesar dressing - sauce made from sour cream, yogurt, or even any mayonnaise with additives. Choose the recipe you like for the New Year's table and start cooking. (photos and step-by-step cooking algorithm will help us!)
This version with chicken and regular cabbage is most similar in taste to the classic one.
It is better to take young cabbage - its leaves are more tender.
Ingredients:
- cabbage - 100 g
- fillet without skin and bones - 100 g
- whole grain bread - 50 g
- Parmesan cheese - 30 g
- tomatoes (cherry) - 3-4 pcs.
- chicken eggs - 2 pcs.
- garlic - 1 small clove.
for the sauce:
- yogurt - 50 ml
- lemon juice - 1 tbsp.
- salt - 1/4 tsp.
- mustard - 1/4 tsp.
- boiled yolk - 1 pc.
Preparation:
- Boil the fillet (peeled from skin and fat) in salted water with the addition of spices. Cut the cooled meat into cubes or separate into small pieces.
- Let's boil the eggs. Two are enough for us - we’ll take 1 yolk for dressing, and the rest for the salad.
- Coarsely chop the cabbage and, adding a little salt, knead it with your hands.
- Dry the bread, cut into cubes, in a hot frying pan until golden brown.
- Cut the cheese very thinly into small petals or grate it. Cut the tomatoes into halves or quarters.
- In a blender, beat all the ingredients for the sauce.
- Let's warm up a flat plate a little and run a cut clove of garlic over the entire inner surface - we don't need the taste and pungency of garlic, but the smell is simply necessary for piquancy.
- Place all the ingredients beautifully on the dish in layers: cabbage, meat, eggs, crackers, grated cheese. Pour in the sauce and garnish with cherry tomatoes.
- Bon appetit!
Chicken in this recipe can be perfectly replaced with turkey and beef.
Cooking with shrimp
Salad with shrimp and Chinese cabbage is a different taste.
We’ll make a dietary sauce for it using olive oil.
Whole grain crispbread is perfect for this.
We need:
- Chinese cabbage - 200 g
- shrimp – 300 g
- whole grain bread - 1-2 slices
- cheese - 50 g
- tomatoes - 2-3 pcs.
- small fresh cucumber - 1 pc.
for the sauce:
- boiled egg yolk - 1 pc.
- olive oil - 30 g
- lemon juice - 1 tsp.
- Dijon mustard - 1 tsp.
- anchovies - 2 small fish.
Step-by-step preparation:
- Chop the cabbage coarsely or tear it with your hands. Cut the tomatoes into slices into 4-8 pieces (depending on the size!). Chop the cucumber into cubes.
- Boil shrimp in boiling salted water for 1-2 minutes. Cool and clean them.
- Grind the cheese on a grater.
- Break the bread into small pieces.
- In a blender, mix all the ingredients for the sauce - the mass should be thick and homogeneous.
- Place cabbage, vegetables and shrimp in a salad bowl. Sprinkle with cheese and add pieces of bread. Pour over the sauce.
- Serve to the table.
Homemade diet Caesar roll
I really like the option of serving salad “packed” in thin Armenian lavash; this deliciousness is called Caesar roll. And the ingredients for it and the dressing are the same: vegetables, chicken, Parmesan cheese, a mixture of yogurt and mustard. But all this, wrapped in pita bread, turns into not just a snack, but a full-fledged lunch and even sometimes dinner - there is a lot of protein in the composition. Here is just a video with the preparation of the Caesar fitness roll and indicating its kbju:
Turkey or beef (veal) can easily replace chicken breast in recipes. Before cooking, the meat must be thoroughly washed and removed from pieces of fat and skin. For appetizers, it is better to boil the meat as a whole piece in a salted broth with the addition of herbs, spices, and aromatic herbs.
We choose low-calorie cheeses with low fat content for the salad. They are more salty. The amount of salt in recipes with such cheeses should be reduced. Curd cheeses can be laid out in the form of balls, pickled cheeses can be cut into 1*1 cm cubes. But it is hard ones like Parmesan that are ideal for Caesar.
Vegetables are cut into large pieces, cubes, and slices. The ingredients are mixed immediately before use. This way, vegetables do not have time to release juice, which can ruin the appearance of the dish.

The appetizer in question can be tried in most popular restaurants today. Usually, even the most skillful housewives find it difficult to successfully replicate it at home. The main secret lies in the Caesar salad dressing. The following are his best recipes.
The main catch with this version of the recipe is the Worcestershire sauce. It is not sold in every store. This ingredient requires at least 20 ml. Other products: 4 selected eggs, 25 ml of wine vinegar, 120 ml of unflavoured olive oil, a clove of garlic, salt, black pepper.
- The contents of soft-boiled eggs are thoroughly beaten with a hand mixer.
- All the liquid ingredients of the recipe and crushed garlic are added there.
- All that remains is to add salt and pepper to the mixture and lightly whisk all the ingredients together.
Before dressing the salad, let the sauce sit for a couple of minutes.
Dijon mustard is best suited for this sauce. 2 small will be enough. spoons The remaining ingredients: half a glass of high-quality olive oil, 2 large spoons of grated Parmesan, yolks of 2 raw eggs, half a lemon, dry garlic.
If you choose too “harsh” mustard, the taste of the dressing will be bitter.
Cheese makes the taste of the sauce more delicate and bright. You need to take 2 large spoons of grated Parmesan. Other ingredients: 1 tbsp. quality olive oil, 4 anchovies, small. a spoonful of lemon juice and the same amount of mustard, an egg, a pair of garlic cloves.
- The garlic is crushed in any convenient way and combined with chopped anchovies. Freshly squeezed lemon juice and oil are added to the same mixture.
- Use a blender to beat the base until it thickens.
- While the device is operating, cheese is poured into the sauce, an egg and mustard are added.
You can season the finished dressing with any hot spices to taste.
The dressing for the discussed mayonnaise-based snack is especially quick and easy to mix. The latter should be as fat as possible. Ingredients: 3 small. spoons of mayonnaise, 4 garlic cloves, 1 tbsp. quality olive oil, 55 ml freshly squeezed lemon juice, small. a spoonful of mustard, 3 anchovies, salt to taste.
This paste can be used to spread on crispy toast.
Using low-fat store-bought sour cream, you can prepare a low-calorie dressing for the salad in question. Ingredients: 1 tbsp. sour cream (can be replaced with natural unsweetened yogurt), a pair of garlic cloves, 2 raw egg yolks, half a large spoon of mustard, spices to taste.
- The garlic is passed through a press, after which it is mixed with mustard and raw yolks. You can even lightly beat the mass.
- Spices are added to the future dressing, sour cream or yogurt is poured. The ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
This Caesar dressing is served exclusively chilled with the appetizer. Therefore, you should first keep it in the refrigerator for a while.
If no one at home has a particular love for fish, then it is quite possible to prepare the dressing without this component. Ingredients: 130 ml of high-quality olive oil, 90 g of soft cheese, a small pickled cucumber, juice from half a lemon, the yolk of one chicken egg, a large spoon of dry mustard, salt to taste.
To taste, you can add a mixture of colored ground peppers to this dressing.
The selected recipe includes a very interesting component - bee honey. A large spoon of liquid product is enough. The remaining ingredients: 90 ml olive oil, a large spoon of dry mustard and a similar amount of soy sauce, dry garlic and salt to taste, 2 large spoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice.
- In a blender bowl, mix honey, butter and mustard well. Lemon juice is poured in there.
- Soy sauce is added.
- The mass is salted and whipped until smooth.
It is important not to add too much salt to the dressing. Soy sauce is already quite salty.
It is best to serve a chicken appetizer prepared in any way with hot sauce. A couple of drops of Tabasco will add the necessary piquancy to it. The remaining ingredients: half a glass of slightly aromatic olive oil, two egg yolks, half a lemon, a medium clove of garlic.
- First of all, hard boil the eggs. This process will take 7-8 minutes. Time is counted from the moment the liquid boils.
- Only the yolks will be used in the eggs. They knead well with a fork.
- A clove of garlic passed through a press is added to the egg “center” and hot sauce is immediately added. You need to be extremely careful with its quantity. If you overdo it, the dressing will be hot and inedible.
- Freshly squeezed lemon juice and olive oil are poured into the container with the remaining ingredients. The ingredients are mixed with a spoon so that even the smallest lumps do not remain.
- If necessary, the resulting dressing can be salted to taste or sprinkled with your favorite spices. For example, a mixture of ground peppers goes well with it.
All that remains is to prepare all the other components for the appetizer and generously pour the prepared sauce over it.
This is an ideal version of the discussed salad for those who love seafood. The main components in it will be large, fleshy shrimp. Of course, such a treat needs to be served with a special suitable sauce. It is prepared from the following ingredients: 2 small. spoons of Dijon mustard (do not take a too spicy bitter product), 2 chicken eggs, half a lemon, 1 tbsp. olive oil, a large spoon of soy sauce without additives.
- The eggs are boiled in boiling water for just one minute. This is necessary so that the white and yolk are only slightly set, but do not have time to become dense.
- When the product has cooled, the liquid yolk is removed from it and mixed with sauce (soy) and mustard.
- Freshly squeezed lemon juice and cold olive oil are added to the base of the future dressing. You can salt the mass.
- It is important to thoroughly knead all ingredients until smooth.
It’s great if you can find a Worcester for refueling. This is a special soy sauce with a very delicate sweet and sour taste. If you don’t find it in the store, any other not too salty soy product will do.

Grate the cheese and sprinkle on top of the salad.
Now let's prepare the sauce for the salad. Of course, it is also quite high in calories, but since only 1-2 tsp is required in the salad, it turns out to be quite dietary and healthy.
