5 Salad Dressings that are Unbelievably Good

by Allison Campbell · Last updated Oct 1, 2024 · This post may contain affiliate links · Leave a Comment

Need a quick salad dressing recipe for dinner? If you have ten minutes of less, the salad dressings below will have no problem taking any green salad from good to great. They're all delicious, and super versatile. Just pick your favorite, shake it up, and dig in!

Every time I make homemade salad dressing I wonder why I ever bought store-bought dressing! Seriously, it takes more effort to actually get to the store and find one on the shelves that (hopefully) tastes good. Save yourself the time and mental energy, and just pick one or two below to try. I think you'll be forever converted too. 🙂

I love using any of these easy dressings over a simple salad of mixed greens and chopped veggies like red pepper, carrots, cucumbers, radishes and thinly sliced red onion. If you have any grilled chicken, fish or tofu on hand, those would be delicious add-ons as well!

And of course, you're welcome to try the full salads that inspired some of these dressing recipes. I can never get Greek salad enough in my life, and if I have some extra time on the weekend, I love making this classic Nicoise salad.
