How many times have you heard someone say, “you should make your own salad dressing! It’s so easy!” So annoying, right? But guess what, it’s SO true! And this Healthy-ish Green Goddess Salad Dressing is the best example of that. Stop rolling your eyes and read on!
Doin’ It Yourself
Trust me, I get how easy it is to buy salad dressing. And there are so many options that sometimes you can spend hours looking at those labels. I mean there’s raspberry vinaigrette, buttermilk ranch, chipotle buttermilk ranch vinaigrette… ;). See what I did there? Ha! Yes, the choices are many, but trust me when I say a homemade dressing is so much better. Why? I don’t know, it’s the love perhaps, but also the fact that you control what goes in it. To me, that’s a beautiful thing. Freshness and customization. Can’t beat that!
Don’t Make it Hard
It’s partially a mental thing, right? UGH, one more thing to make! But come on folks, it’s simply a matter of buying a few ingredients and dumping them in a blender. If that’s hard for you, then well, life must be REALLY hard for you. Besides, making your own dressing makes you look like a BAD-A$$! That’s right! What’s better than when you pop open your salad at work and someone admiringly says, “WOW! That salad dressing looks ahhhh-mazing!” Then you get to blush and brag and say, “oh this? I made it.” See, you’re so cool now!
Healthy-ish Green Goddess Dressing
So why make this salad dressing? Because, #1 it is addictively delicious, #2 it’s stupid-easy to make and #3 it keeps for 5 days in your fridge (if it doesn’t disappear sooner). Don’t believe me? Well then, try it yourself! The recipe is conveniently below!
