3 scallions, white and green parts, chopped

1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves, lightly packed

2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 1/2 Tbsp Dijon mustard

1 Tbsp olive oil

2 garlic cloves, chopped

2 1/2 tsp kosher salt

1 tsp freshly ground black pepper

1 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup Greek yogurt
