Spinach Salad Dressing

Spinach Salad Dressing is zesty and delicious, a perfect blend for a spinach salad. 

A handful of ingredients you likely have (oil, vinegar, a bit of mustard) and a quick shake is all you need! Serve with bacon crumbles or change it up to match whatever fruits and veggies are on the menu!

A Favorite Dressing

We love this vinaigrette salad dressing because the flavors are extra zesty!

Ingredients

OIL Choose a light flavored oil such as vegetable or canola oil.

VINEGAR Red wine vinegar is our favorite flavor but white wine vinegar works too.

HONEY Sub out sugar (or even real maple syrup if it’s all you have).

DIJON Mustard adds flavor but also helps emulsify the dressing (along with honey) so the oil and vinegar don’t separate.

Mix-Ins for Spinach Salad

Spinach leaves are thick and heavy enough to be prepared with a wide variety of mix-ins. Here is a list of favorites!

• Veggies: Avocados, Onions, Mushrooms
• Bold Flavors: Feta cheese, Nuts, Goat Cheese, Bacon, Egg
• Fruit: Mandarin orange segments, Slices of apple, Dried cranberries

How to Make Spinach Salad Dressing
