Do you know how easy it is to make salad dressings?! It might sound intimidating and possibly easier to just buy a bottle from the store. However, by combining just a few fresh ingredients and whisking them together, you can create dressing that far surpasses the bottled varieties, plus it’s much cheaper. By creating dressings yourself, you can remove all of the added sugar, salt and other unnecessary ingredients. My mother in-law, a homemade salad dressing goddess, and I teamed up to share our five favorite paleo salad dressings made simple. It only took us approximately 47 tries each but we think they are pretty darn great, if we do say so ourselves!
