hey everyone and welcome back to my channel today I'm sharing with you five
delicious healthy salad dressings that can also double as sauces and marinades
you're gonna love all of these they are so delicious so the first one we're
making is my green goddess dressing this is probably one of my top favorite
dressings and let's go ahead and make it so you're gonna start off with an
avocado avocado has great healthy fats it makes this dress in green as well and
it's gonna help keep you full so you're gonna need a whole avocado and don't
worry if it's not perfectly ripe because we are going to blend it so if your
avocados on the harder side that's okay I'm adding in a clove of garlic as well
as a squeeze of lemon the lemon also really helps to keep the color of the
dressing so that it doesn't turn brown or anything I'm adding in half a cup of
green onion as well as some water and some basil and the fresh herbs in this
you're gonna love it because it's such a good thing for summer and for spring I'm
adding in some olive oil as well as a pinch of Himalayan salt and then I'm
using my immersion blender you can use a food processor or blender or whatever
you have in your kitchen that you think would blend this up nice and smooth but
as you can see you get a great green vibrant color I store it in a mason jar
in the fridge and it's good to use for a couple weeks either on salads on
vegetables or anything else next up is my signature lemon tahini dressing so
this is everything you're gonna need this is a definitely one of the more
simpler ones and something I use as a sauce on just about anything so I'm
using some garlic as well as a quarter cup of tahini and tahini for those of
you who don't know is actually sesame seed paste I'm adding in a squeeze of
lemon as well as a pinch of Himalayan salt and then we're just going to blend
that up and I did add some water as well so you get this nice smooth creamy sauce
and I use this on grilled vegetables meats salads on so so many different
things next up we are going to be making an
almond butter Lima dressing so this one has a little bit more of an Asian flair
to it and this is everything you're going to need so I'm adding in some
garlic and some fresh ginger but you could also use ground ginger some almond
butter as well as some coconut aminos which is a great alternative for your
traditional soy sauce adding in some water as well as the juice of half of a
lime and then we're going to blend that together so as you guys can see a lot of
these dressings are really easy to make you just blend them up and pour them
into your mason jar and you can store them into the fridge for all of your
needs this one would especially be good with
proteins too with like chicken or tofu or any kind of stir fry it vegetables
next up we're making a really simple kind of cow's vinaigrette your kind of
your staple salad dressing so I'm using olive oil apple cider vinegar a little
bit of garlic as well as a pinch of Himalayan salt and some freshly ground
pepper and you can do the pepper to taste depending on how you like it blend
it up with your immersion blender and miss what is super easy you store it in
the fridge in the mason jar give it a quick little shake when you're gonna put
it over your salad and this is a great like staple dressing to keep in your
fridge kind of at all times for when you need something really quick and simple
and that will go with everything and lastly I'm showing you guys a simple
plant-based Caesar sauce so I'm using some hemp seeds which are loaded with
Omega threes and healthy fats adding in some water which is just gonna help thin
it garlic Himalayan salt again you guys can see a trend some freshly ground
pepper and you guys can do that to taste as well as a squeeze of lemon and this
one is so delicious if you want to add some anchovy paste to this you can I
decided to keep it out to keep it nice and plant-based again I'm store it in
your mason jar and this makes a wonderful dressing as well one of my
classics and my favorites all of them are so delicious and like I said can be
used as salad dressings but also as sauces and marinades so I hope you guys
