Creamy herb dressing
I got the idea for this easy and beautiful healthy salad dressing when a friend, whose food tip-offs I trust hugely, sent me a link to Pro Home Cook’s all-purpose dressing. My recipe uses what I had in stock that night but really you can use any herbs and fresh green things. This will have you in raptures with every mouthful, whether it’s on salad or hot chicken or baked potato or just eaten (hello) straight from the food processor.
As with a lot of my cooking I didn’t measure anything, therefore the amounts are a guess but it’s not the sort of thing that needs precise measurements. Adjust it to your own taste and texture preferences.

Nutrition Info
Salad dressing
Salad dressing not only tastes immense but it helps your body to absorb the nutrients that are in the salad itself. By eating good quality oil with your salad veggies you will help to release the fat soluble vitamins within.
