Every Monday, I make enough salad dressing to last the week, keeping it in the fridge for quick access.</div> <div style="font-size: 12px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"> I reached out to other registered dietitians to find out what their favorite simple salad dressing recipes were and compiled a list of 10 excellent options. <em>Warning:</em> what you are about to read will make you want to eat a salad!</div> <div style="font-size: 12px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"> <strong><span style="color: #e06666;">1. Sort of Sweet Balsamic Dressing:</span></strong> This is my favorite salad dressing. It’s three parts olive oil to one part balsamic vinegar (usually about 1/4 cup olive oil to 1-1.5 tablespoons balsamic).  I add a crushed garlic clove, a pinch of brown sugar, and a splash (about 1/2 teaspoon) of red wine vinegar.</div> <div style="font-size: 12px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"> <strong><span style="color: #e06666;">2. Basic Vinaigrette:</span></strong> This recipe is courtesy Kristen Smith, MS, RD, who blogs at <a href="http://www.webmd.com/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.360familynutrition.org%2F" style="color: #3789b9; text-decoration: none;">360 Family Nutrition.</a> It makes about 1/2 cup or four servings: 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, 1-3 teaspoons spicy mustard, 1 garlic clove (minced), 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste.</div> <div style="font-size: 12px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"> <strong><span style="color: #e06666;">3. Everyday Salad Dressing:</span></strong> Kimberly Buchholz, MS, RDN, shares her favorite dressing, which she says is best when made fresh each time. In a small bowl, add and whisk 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. With your whisk moving the whole time, add 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil in a small stream, until dressing is combined. “To serve two, use half of each of the first four ingredient amounts,” she adds. “For the olive oil, use 3 tablespoons.”</div> <div style="font-size: 12px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"> <strong><span style="color: #e06666;">4. Lemon-Thyme Dressing:</span></strong> Jessica Levinson from <a href="http://www.webmd.com/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nutritioulicious.com%2F" style="color: #3789b9; text-decoration: none;">Nutritioulicious</a> likes this dressing with her <a href="http://www.webmd.com/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FNC3LKy" style="color: #3789b9; text-decoration: none;">Spinach Pear Salad With Goat Cheese</a>: 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon  honey, 1/4 teaspoon thyme, and salt and pepper to taste.</div> <div style="font-size: 12px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"> <strong><span style="color: #e06666;">5.

Maple Cider Vinaigrette:</span></strong> Ayla Withee, MS, RDN, from <a href="http://www.webmd.com/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Featsimply.org%2Fmaple-syrup-vinaigrette%2F" style="color: #3789b9; text-decoration: none;">Eat Simply</a> shares a salad dressing with just three ingredients: 1/3 cup olive oil, 4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, and 2 tablespoons real maple syrup.</div> <div style="font-size: 12px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"> <strong><span style="color: #e06666;">7. Simple Mustardy Dressing:</span></strong> This one comes from <a href="http://www.webmd.com/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.katescarlata.com%2F" style="color: #3789b9; text-decoration: none;">Kate Scarlata, RDN, LDN</a>, best-selling co-author of <em>The 21-Day Tummy:</em> 1/8 teaspoon sea salt, 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, 2 teaspoons fresh chives (chopped), 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and 3 tablespoons olive oil. Mix the first three ingredients, and let sit to let flavors infuse. Whisk in Dijon and olive oil.</div> <div style="font-size: 12px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"> <strong><span style="color: #e06666;">8. Lime Salad Dressing:</span></strong> <a href="http://www.webmd.com/click?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FJulieBeyer.InterstitialCystitisDiet" style="color: #3789b9; text-decoration: none;">Julie Beyer, MA, RDN,</a> shares this simple combination with the option of fresh chopped cilantro: 1/2 cup of olive oil, the juice of one lime, 2 tablespoons of honey, and salt and pepper to taste. “It is adds a burst of flavor when drizzled on fresh pineapple!” she says.</div> <div style="font-size: 12px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"> <strong><span style="color: #e06666;">9. Beyond Basic Vinaigrette:</span></strong> <a href="http://www.webmd.com/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.christinepalumbo.com%2F" style="color: #3789b9; text-decoration: none;">Christine Palumbo,</a> MBA, RDN, keeps it basic with the super-simple vinaigrette she grew up eating: equal amounts extra virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar (option is garlic-flavored red wine vinegar), a pinch of dried oregano, crushed between finger and thumb, to taste, and salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. “To make it a Greek dressing, substitute freshly squeezed lemon juice for the vinegar,” she says. “The amounts depend upon how much salad you are making. If you’re making a salad for two, about 1 tablespoon of each oil and acid.”</div> <div style="font-size: 12px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"> <strong><span style="color: #e06666;">10. Greek Yogurt Balsamic Vinaigrette:</span></strong> This one from Lauren Harris-Pincus, MS, RDN, cofounder of the <a href="http://www.webmd.com/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnutritionbabes.com%2Fcgi-bin%2Fhomepage.pl%3Fpagename%3Drecipes%26amp%3Bselected_recipe_category%3DDressings%2520and%2520Dips%26amp%3BrecipeID%3D205%26amp%3BnumRows%3D%26amp%3Bsearch_string%3D" style="color: #3789b9; text-decoration: none;">Nutrition Babes</a>, is lower in fat and calories than traditional vinaigrettes: 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon nonfat plan Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, 3/4 teaspoon honey, and salt and pepper to taste.</div> <div style="font-size: 12px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"> What’s your favorite simple homemade salad dressing?<br /> <br /> <br /> <em style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">shared from blogs.webmd.com By Maryann Tomovich Jacobsen, MS, RD</span></em></div> </div> <!-- Blogger automated replacement: "https://images-blogger-opensocial.googleusercontent.com/gadgets/proxy?url=http%3A%2F%2Fblogs.webmd.com%2Ffood-and-nutrition%2Ffiles%2F2014%2F04%2F79308918.jpg&container=blogger&gadget=a&rewriteMime=image%2F*" with "https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/proxy/AVvXsEja2yoKAxWnanRBMxYUTaYnOBFFWtMSghxwGcCi9J9LfE359Hv3SdkvymDWr1-WL5Kga0XlD1KWK2SOfOd8PNl3fZDkPOxnC1jj-dBF99u-0cHQZBjOubKmkFu91WtIWrXgcNqD-anyzNuHXqovdDvd_OLmQPsLvoK1BNfnd_vkWUqzHHU=" -->
