It’s salad season! And if you’re looking for a new salad dressing to take your favorite salad to a whole new level, look no further than my Grandma’s Simple Salad Dressing.
This salad dressing brings back so many memories of my Grandma. She used to make big batches and send me home with plenty to share with friends and roommates.
The good news is that it’s incredibly easy to make β meaning I could easily whip up a batch to enjoy even when I couldn’t make a trip to my grandparent’s house. And to this day, it’s the dressing I make for family dinners, picnics, neighborhood parties, and potlucks.
Here’s what you’ll need!

Salad Dressing
Tangy and sweet, this dressing takes any salad to a whole new level.

- 1 teaspoon celery seed

What I love about my Grandma’s Simple Salad Dressing is that you don’t need a lot. It’s so flavorful and rich, and a little can go a long way.
I typically create a salad with veggies (like tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, etc.) and add some avocado for a little more substance. The dressing is super fresh and while rich, not too heavy β making it great for summer salads.
