Quick, Easy, Healthy and Tasty Salad Dressings
Below are three different salad dressing to bring life back into your salads. Home-made dressings are easy and quick and much healthier. Even the healthy store- bought versions contain processed sugar and soy or canola oil which are inflammatory processed oils.
For any homemade salad dressing, a high quality EVOO makes all the difference. I splurge on my EVOO because I use it only on raw dishes and use it almost every day. I have tried store bought EVOO and they just don’t compare in taste. Beware of many fake EVOO’s on the market. In this case it is very true, you get what you pay for.
A serving of dressing is 2 tablespoons.
