Creamy Low Fat Buttermilk Basil Dressing

We loved the buttermilk dill dressing so much I decided to try making it with fresh basil and parsley this time. I also decided to add a bit of lemon because I love basil and lemon together. It turned out fantastic and we all enjoyed it. Making homemade dressing is so quick, easy, and affordable.
