You should try this delicious, Honey Mustard Salad Dressing. Super quick and easy to make. Simple ingredients. Inexpensive to make and much healthier for you than store bought, factory made salad dressing.Â
If you want to eat healthy, you must always make your own salad dressings. A factory made salad dressing will sabotage the health benefits of any salad you eat.  Almost all store-bought salad dressings are made with pro-inflammatory seed oils (soybean and canola oils), high fructose corn syrup (especially in America), sugar and food additives. Any salad dressing I’ve seen with healthy ingredients runs almost $10 a bottle. Generally, any home made salad dressings are inexpensive and easy to make and the ingredients are always healthier.
This Honey Mustard Salad Dressing is made with olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt and pepper. So simple, yet so delicious. Use it as a salad dressing or a marinade for chicken.Â
This dressing will quickly become on of your favourites!
