must-try homemade salad dressing recipes

Blueberry Basil Salad Dressing by The Garden Grazer (doesn’t it look yum?)

So we are generally pretty healthy eaters around here, but the last few months of 2016 were a train wreck nutritionally. As cliche as it is to get things organized and get back on the healthy train in the new year, that is exactly what is happening at the Gentry house right now.

As I was rounding up homemade salad dressing recipes for this healthy overhaul, I thought I’d share them with y’all as well (surely we aren’t the only ones doing this now!).

ps- Some tried and true salad recipes that we love- tuscan kale salad, warm root vegetable salad (this one’s perfect for cold winter-y days!), kale salad with tart cherries, peach, pecan and goat cheese salad. And here are 76 salads to try!
