Cilantro Lime Dressing

May 28, 2015 by simplyhomecooked 2 Comments

This salad dressing is perhaps the tastiest dressing I’ve ever had. It has such a unique flavor that will complement any spring salad. The cilantro is surprisingly not over powering. It also has a nice sweetness from the honey. But it’s not too sweet due to the sourness of the vinegar. After making this dressing I actually kept tasting it straight out of the bottle… Yeah it’s that good! Oh and did I mention it’s super healthy? This is probably the healthiest salad dressing you’ll ever come by 😉

2. Give it a quick stir, then add in the roughly chopped cilantro and blend well. (I used an immersion blender).

3. As you blend the dressing over low speed, slowly add in the grape seed oil. Adding the oil in while briskly mixing will help properly emulsify the dressing. Once the oil is well blended, add in the salt and pepper.

    Hi, I recently came by your site not long ago and everything looks so good. I made 3 things from your list already and am very eager to try more! This dressing tastes pretty amazing I got to admit, I have so much left over still and just wondering what salads you pair with this dressing. Hope to hear soon.

      Liz, you are so sweet, thank you! I pair this dressing with a variety of salads. It can go with almost anything. I like it with romaine lettuce, red onion, corn, and red bell peppers. Its super simple, but so delicious!
