Healthy salad dressing recipes

healthy salad dressing recipes
Looking to add some extra flavour to your salads? Check out these healthy salad dressing recipes from raspberry vinaigrette to creamy mint dressing.
It’s no secret that salads make an excellent healthy meal or side dish. With so many great ingredients available and hundreds of exciting combinations to be explored, there are plenty of ways to improve your diet with salads. While base ingredients like vegetables, pulses, and even fruits make salads super-healthy and nutritious, their dressings often let them down. Many popular store-bought salad dressings contain extra sodium, sugar, and calories that can make your meal not-so-healthy.

Choosing healthy salad dressings

If you’re turning to salads for their nutritional benefits, try to stay away from creamy, indulgent dressings with long lists of ingredients. Preparing your salad dressing at home couldn’t be easier, and you’ll benefit from knowing what you’re putting into your body. Here are our favourite healthy salad dressing recipes that are quick and straightforward to make at home. You might also like to explore our range of nutritious condiments and sauces to ensure you’re using the very best ingredients in your homemade salad dressing.

Healthy salad dressing recipes

Making salad dressings couldn’t be simpler. Just combine the ingredients in a jar, bowl, or container and remember to re-shake before use if you’re going to store your dressing. Keep your pre-prepared salad dressing in the fridge to ensure it stays fresh. These dressings should last around a week when stored properly, so you can enjoy tasty salads at the drop of a hat!
