3 of our Favorite Salad Dressings

Salad Dressing, Vinaigrette, Sauce, Tahini, Lemon Dijon, Healthy recipes

1. LEMON DIJON VINAIGRETTE

Perfect light and lemony dressing for a basic salad. We use this one very often when we don’t want anything to overwhelm the salad.

• 3 tbsps of EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil) always from Olive en Folie (read about the skin benefits and how to use it topically here).

• 1 tbsp of Dijon Mustard (with grains or without)

• 2 tbsp of lemon juice

• Himalayan Salt + Pepper

Note: Play around with the ratios for desired taste but usually it’s about a 3-1 olive oil / lemon ratio with about a tbsp of dijon. We like to make it in a glass mason jar so we can see the proportions and then just shake it all up!

2. MAPLE-CITRUS DRESSING

This one makes a statement and is both sweet and spicy. It’s absolutely delicious with our Moroccan Salad.

• ½ teaspoon cumin powder

• ⅓ cup olive oil

• 2 tablespoons lemon juice

• 2 tablespoon of maple syrup 

• ½ teaspoon salt

• ⅛ teaspoon chili powder

3. LEMON TAHINI SAUCE/DRESSING

A thicker and savoury sauce that’s perfect for a drizzle on roasted veggies. Most recently, we had this with our Boost Bowl.

• 2-3 tbsps of EVOO

• 1/4 cup of tahini 

• 1/4 nutritional yeast

• 3 tbsps of fresh lemon juice

• 1 to 2 tbsps of water to achieve desired thickness

• optional: 1 tbsp of dijon mustard
