How to make an easy salad dressing? You don’t need more than a few minutes, and the ingredients which are probably already in your pantry.

I make this easy salad dressing recipe practically every day as it can be used as a base for many salads. This easy salad dressing can be used as a green salad dressing, or in coleslaw, or as a cold pasta salad dressing as well. You can add other spices, such as sage, marjoram, oregano, dried parsley, dried basil, for added flavour. Or you can add mayonnaise for a creamy, delicious version.

Easy Salad Dressing

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 tablespoon mustard

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

optional: 1 tablespoon mayonnaise

Mix all ingredients together until smooth. Double or triple the recipe and put into a small mason jar to have dressing at the ready.

  1. Looks like a delicious vinaigrette. I have been looking for a new one for my salad lately and can’t wait to try this one out. Homemade always tastes so much better than store bought!

  2. Fresh salad dressing is so much better than the bottled stuff we normally purchase. Love the simple ingredients in this recipe!

    • Thanks! It takes two minutes, so there’s no need to buy salad dressing!
