Tasty dressings are key when it comes to creating beautiful salads. I love to whip up a dressing on a Sunday and keep it stored in the fridge. This means I always have something on hand to inspire me to get cooking!
Here are 3 dressings that are sure to make you friends with salad:
4-Ingredient Tahini Drizzle
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp hulled tahini paste
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp warm filtered water
Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and whisk well. Store in an airtight jar or container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Orange & Cinnamon Dressing
Ingredients
- ½ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp maple syrup or honey

Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and whisk well. Store in an airtight jar or container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
This dressing pairs beautifully with my Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad from the JSHealth app (pictured below).
