Growing up, there were lots of foods that I thought I didn’t like because I never actually tried them to find out. Salads, sweet potatoes and mustard were among them (well, it actually took a few months of forcing myself to eat salads to like them and now I love them).
Turns out I really like mustard in moderation and honey mustard dressing has become one of my favorite condiments.
I like making my own dressings so that I can control the ingredients and plus, they usually taste a whole lot better. Except for ranch, anyone have a good homemade version? They are never as tasty as a good ‘ole Hidden Valley Buttermilk Ranch packet.
This honey mustard is perfectly sweet with a tiny bit of a zip. It’s been my go-to dressing since I started eating clean and will now be a constant staple in my fridge.
- Honey Mustard Dressing
- 4 Tbsp. honey
- 4 Tbsp. yellow mustard
- 4 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
- pinch of salt
- 1/4 tsp. black pepper
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Lasts for about a week.

I love this recipe and can not wait to have it. I have to tell you I love the dishes in the images as well and so want to pick up a similar dish, especially for serving salads in. To be honest we use these beautiful bamboo bowls, which are meant for an entire salad to be served in and not the individual servings. They are just too big for serving bowls. Love yours! Thanks for all that you do and hope all is well with you!

Thanks Christine! Hope you enjoy the recipe. The bowls are the Food Network line from Kohls. Mine are almost 6 years old and it doesn’t look like they carry that specific style anymore, at least in white (there is a poppy design and a red). There is another style that is similar too. They don’t have the best website so they may carry more options in the store.
