3 Simple DIY Salad Dressing Recipes You’ll Love
Article posted in: Diet & NutritionOne of the best things about your own DIY salad dressing recipe is that you control the ingredients. Therefore, you also control the health factor of the dressing. You might be surprised to know that a lot of store-bought bottled dressings come with quite a bit of added sugar. All of those additional calories can really stack up and make your salad a lot less healthy. That can be frustrating when you’re trying hard to stick to a healthy diet like Nutrisystem.
We know it can be challenging to find a dressing that’s good for you—so we created some for you right here! They’re super easy to make but taste like something you might find in the store or a restaurant—without all of the unhealthy ingredients, of course.
If you’re looking to jazz up your favorite salads, here are three fresh DIY salad dressing recipe ideas you’ve got to try:
