Green Goddess Glory Bowl Dressing
This post may contain affiliate links. Please read our disclosure policy.
This green goddess glory bowl dressing blends tahini, miso, nutritional yeast, and fresh herbs for a creamy, savory, herb-forward sauce. It’s bright, balanced, and full of flavor.
This green goddess glory bowl dressing comes from my mother-in-law, and I’ve made it countless times since she first shared it with me. It’s a little different from a classic green goddess—more in line with a glory bowl (or hollyhock) dressing—but lightened up with plenty of fresh herbs.
The flavor is what keeps me coming back. It’s creamy and nutty from the tahini, deeply savory from the miso and nutritional yeast, and balanced with a mix of tangy vinegar and bright lemon. The fresh herbs bring a clean, vibrant finish, making it feel lighter and more layered than the original.
It blends up quickly and is endlessly flexible depending on what herbs you have on hand. I use it as a dip, drizzle it over salads and grain bowls, or spoon it onto roasted vegetables—it’s one of those sauces that makes everything taste a little better.
You might also enjoy my dairy-free green goddess dressing recipe. It’s a lighter and fresher take on this one.
How to serve green goddess dressing
This creamy herb-infused dressing is really versatile. Here are a few of our favorite ways to enjoy this green goddess dressing:
- As a dip with fresh, grilled, or roasted vegetables like our best roasted broccoli and sheet pan sausage and veggies.
- As a dressing with our broccoli and kale salad, or baby kale salad with grapefruit, avocado, and almonds
- Drizzled over a build-your-own grain bowl.

Holy sh* this is good!! I am one of those obnoxious people who makes everything from scratch (most of the time). This is some incredible dressing. I’ve never left a review for a recipe before, but here you go. Make this ish.
Whoa this one is spectacular!!! Thank u for the recipe!
Could I freeze this?
I’ve never tried freezing it so I can’t say for sure. I suspect that the quality would degrade substantially, like what happens when you freeze pesto.
This was SO good. Didn’t have parsley, added spinach and cilantro instead. Thank you!!!
You’re welcome!!
I loved the sound and look of this recipe. When I made it, the taste was good but not the colour. It’s a greeny, beigey grey. What did I do wrong?
Thanks!
It sounds like there may not have been enough parsley. Did you use a tightly packed up of parsley?
This was yummy! I will make it again.
Awesome! So happy you like the recipe!
I can’t wait to try this today! I have everything except for the miso paste. Should I use a little extra tamari to make up for the absent miso paste?
That will work!
This dressing is AMAZING! I admittedly was scraping every last morsel from my blender so as not to waste anything.. A great mix of fresh and savoury flavours, an umami explosion. Will definitely make again, thanks for the great recipe 🙂
You are so welcome!!!!
Hello. Thanks for sharing. How long does this keep for in the fridge typically?
Thanks! Look forward to trying it.
I often keep it for a week in the fridge. 🙂
Just made this and not only is it a beautiful colour but it tastes fantastic! I’m wondering if it’s in an airtight container how long it can be kept in the fridge for, if at all. Thanks!
I’m so happy to hear you like the recipe! It keeps for at least a week in your fridge. 🙂
I absolutely love this dressing. I feel totally guilt free eating it.
I’m so happy you like it!!!
great dressing
Thank you!!
Sooooo good!! I used a mix of parsley and cilantro, with a sprig of tarragon thrown in there. The dressing thickens as it sits. I ate it on salad last night and when I woke up this morning, I was already planning my next salad with it ? Thanks for the awesome recipe!
I’m so happy you liked it! And nice call on the tarragon. I bet that was delicious!
Absolutely amazing recipe. I am not vegan but I gave it a try anyhow. WOW I’m sure glad I did. Better than all the ones I’ve tried. I’m a little obsessed on finding ultimate recipes for everything so I have tried quite a few.
I’m so happy you gave it a try! I’m not vegan either and it is one of my favorite salad dressing recipes ever!
I wasn’t able to pick up the miso paste today, so I went ahead and made it without. I’m wondering how much of an impact this would have in the taste? Also, I am not a food person – too lazy :). So making dressing is out of my area of expertise, I’m wondering if it’s normal to see little pieces of parsley after blending it?
I do like the miso in it as it kicks up the saltiness a bit. Definitely not mandatory though! You might see some parsley in it, depending on what kind of blender you have. I have a vitamix which makes short work of greens. 🙂
It’s a magic bullet? It’s not mine, but I think that’s what it is. This may be a stupid question, but do I blend the parsley before measuring the packed cup?
I used a magic bullet for years before I got my Vitamix. It’s a great blender, but you will see some bits that aren’t 100% ground up. And just measure the parley raw (ie: not ground up) Simply pack it into a cup then put in your magic bullet with the rest of the ingredients. 🙂
Thanks so much. I’m having trouble finding miso paste. You’d think living in Vancouver it would be in every store! I’ll find it this weekend and try the recipe in full! 🙂
You totally would think so! I usually get mine at Sunrise Market. I know T&T definitely has some, too. 🙂
You can find it in any grocery store here in the Vancouver area. Are you checking in the refrigerator section? They even carry two or three kinds at Walmart!
