Have you ever made a beautiful salad with all the fixings (lettuce, tomato, onion, garlic, carrot, boiled egg, cilantro, green onion, kale, cabbage, etc.), you know, one of those salads that takes about half an hour to fully prepare, only to realize you only have enough dressing to cover one bite of your amazing salad? Well NEVER FEAR, I am here to tell you that you can make your own salad dressing that will have you enjoying your DELICIOUS salad in less than 5 minutes. Skeptical? Well don’t be, I’m not kidding!

You can find the entire list of ten homemade salad dressings on the internet that are sure to blow your mind and wow your guests! Whether you like ranch, Italian, poppyseed, Asian… there’s at least one dressing you’ll love (guaranteed!) =)

Most dressings have only four or five ingredients, and I don’t mean the ingredients you have to go out of your way to buy…I mean the normal, everyday ingredients you have in your fridge or pantry/kitchen. sign. It’s about time we stopped paying over $3 bucks on salad dressing, when we can make it ourselves for a quarter of the price.

So in this article I am going to cover the recipe for the two best dressings to get you started and then if you are interested in learning more you can. The recipe calls for enough ingredients to make one serving, so keep that in mind when you’re making it. You’ll want to make sure you make enough for everyone! Let’s go ahead and get started:

Poppy Seed Dressing:

1 – You’ll want to start with 2 teaspoons of red wine vinegar

2 – Next we add 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil

3 – Then mix in 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard

4 – Lastly, add 1/2 teaspoon of poppy seeds, a pinch of garlic powder (and if you like a bit of spice, add a pinch of minced jalapenos)

…Or… You could try:

Caesar dressing:

1 – Start with 2 teaspoons of BALSAMIC Vinegar

2 – Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil

3 – Add 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese

4 – A splash of Worcestershire sauce and lemon juice

5 – Finally, shake with a pinch of garlic powder and a little salt and pepper.

THAT’S! Are you ready. I told you it would be quick and easy (and pain free). Now drizzle over the salad and ENJOY!
