- Tender herbs. These might include mint, basil, cilantro, parsley, chives, or tarragon. Any combination will be delicious—just use what you have or can easily find!
- Garlic. I tend to leave garlic out because I'm sensitive to it, but I love the flavor. If you're also a garlic lover, feel free to grate up a clove and stir it in as well!
- Storage instructions. Store herbed dill yogurt sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days. If I'm meal prepping this sauce, I make it directly in the container I'll be storing it in. Fewer dirty dishes, yay!
