Making your own DIY salad dressing instead of buying it in a bottle doesn’t have to be a hefty to-do on your never ending list. Just shake or blend ingredients you’ll likely be able to find in your pantry, and then pour over your favorite salad.
For a creamy dressing, you can fast soak cashews in hot water for 20 minutes to soften them up for blending in any blender. The Classic Vinaigrette and Sweet and Tangy Dressing will keep for 10 days in your fridge; the Creamy Blended Dressing for 5. Comment below on your favorite salad dressing recipes!
