Why buy salad dressings?!?!

Dressings are so easy to make and you can change them up to fit the flavor profile of your meal.

Basic salad dressing
2 tbsp lemon juice
5 tbsp of olive oil
1 tsp salt
1 tsp fresh ground pepper

Balsamic salad dressing

2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
5 tbsp olive oil. Sometimes I use flavored olive oil.
1 tsp salt
1 tsp fresh pepper
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tsp basil finely chopped

You can switch up the basil with lemon thyme or rosemary depending in your meal.

Honey mustard dressing

1/2 tsp roasted garlic smashed or mushed
1 tbsp honey
1 tbsp grain mustard
2 tbsp lemon juice
5 tbsp olive oil.

See how the basic dressing can quickly change to something different.

Citrus ginger dressing

2 tsp grated ginger
1 tsp orange zest
2 tbsp orange juice
5 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
