21 Homemade Salad Dressing Recipes

These 21 Homemade Salad Dressing Recipes are sure to become a summer staple at your dinner table, cookouts, family gatherings and picnics too!

When the temps get warmer, I tend to crave cold foods, especially salads! I have to be honest, I've become a bit of a food snob when it comes to salad dressings. It all started last year when I made my own Blue Cheese Dressing from scratch. You guys, it was seriously the most delicious dressing I have ever had, and the blue cheese can be left out if you prefer more of a ranch dressing taste. After making my own dressing, store bought salad dressings just don't hold the same taste for me. I now make my own balsamic vinaigrette, Italian dressing, caesar dressing and buttermilk ranch dressing. The freshness of homemade dressing really bumps up the taste of any salad! I thought it would be fun to round up a few homemade salad dressing recipes to share with you! I hope these dressing recipes will encourage you to make some of your own salad dressings this summer and enjoy them on different salads and as marinades for meat too! Let's start with my favorite Homemade Blue Cheese Dressing Recipe...

This easy to make Homemade Blue Cheese Dressing is perfect for salads, as a vegetable dip and we love to use it as a dip for hot wings! I love it on a wedge salad, grilled romaine salad and even use it as a spread on buffalo chicken sandwiches. Once you make it, store bought blue cheese dressing will never taste the same!

I like to make my homemade salad dressings, and store them in these 8 oz. Jelly Jars. Sometimes I make enough to share with friends and family...they make such a super cute gift, and are great for taking to a cookout or picnic with a nice salad.
