    There’s nothing better than a homemade salad dressing! You’re able to make just what you need and you don’t end up with multiple half-emptied bottles taking up precious space in the fridge.

    This strawberry vinaigrette is light, refreshing, sweet with a hint of tanginess. This strawberry salad dressing is one of my go-to’s whenever I have an abundance of strawberries.

    Ingredients You’ll Need

    Ingredients needed to make a strawberry vinaigrette.
    • strawberries — once strawberries are picked, the ripen process stops. So, try to find the most red strawberries you can find! Here’s how I wash and store my strawberries before using.
    • apple cider vinegar — you’ll need an acid to make a vinaigrette. I use apple cider vinegar for this recipe to add tang and flavour.
    • maple syrup — for some additional sweetness.
    • salt — just a pinch. a little goes a long way.
    • olive oil — for dressings, I recommend using a high-quality extra virgin olive oil for the best flavour.

    • Store in an airtight container if you’re not using it immediately.

    Subsitutions

    • apple cider vinegar: if you do not have ACV, then try using red wine vinegar, white wine vinegar, or if you don’t have any of those, sherry vinegar.
    • maple syrup: honey is a great alternative if you do not need this salad dressing to be plant-based/vegan. Agave can be used as well.
    • olive oil: if you prefer to use a different neutral oil you have on hand, you are more than welcomed to do so.

    • Peach Quinoa Salad

    Storage

    • I recommend using the strawberry vinaigrette within the week.
    • Store the strawberry salad dressing in an airtight container such as a mason jar.
    • Since this recipe doesn’t take a lot of effort to make, I do not recommend freezing it. However, if you have a ton of strawberries, you could freeze those instead and then use it for the dressing year round.
