A good salad dressing can make or break a salad, in my humble opinion.
As a dietitian helping people eat healthier, we make a lot of salads. And some of them my kids will even eat, like when I use this honey lemon dressing!
I kid you not! If you have a picky eater who won’t even go near a salad, I recommend trying a yummy dressing or dip.
