SUMMER SALADS – YES PLEASE!

2019-08-16

When summer rolls around, it’s nice to enjoy a healthy light and bright salad but too often store-bought salad dressings and vinaigrettes are loaded with sugars and preservatives, so we’ve developed three easy-to-make salad dressing recipes that are both light and healthy, keto-friendly and will work on any type of salad. Pick your base – lettuce, quinoa, potato, chicken, pasta – and have fun experimenting with these great summer flavours.

Roasted Garlic, Onion & Feta Dressing

This creamy, sweet dressing adds a mild flavour that can be incorporated into a variety of salads, including potato, pasta or a simple romaine.

Soft, roasted garlic and Vidalia onion combined with crumbled feta cheese and olive oil form a sweet and fragrant dressing without any added sugar and only a few ingredients.

To turn your dressing into an onion spread, ease up on the olive oil and serve alongside crostini as an appetizer!

Smoked Tahini Dressing

 Krinos Tahini is the star of this vegan dressing, and when it’s combined with smoked paprika, lemon juice, garlic and olive oil, you’re left with a creamy, modern middle-eastern dressing that’s perfect for carb-heavy salads, including potato, quinoa and rice bowls.

Green Goddess Dressing

Flavour overload! Our Green Goddess dressing takes superior summer flavours – like fresh, chopped parsley and mint – combined with diced, sweet shallot and creamy avocado. Add Krinos Goat Feta Cheese, lemon juice, garlic and olive oil and you have a dressing that’s perfectly balanced: salty, sweet, sour, bitter and even umami. You’re welcome.
