12 DRESSINGS THAT GO WELL ON PASTA SALAD – HAPPY MUNCHER

From happymuncher.com
Cuisine American
Total Time 10 mins
Category Dressing
Published Jun 6, 2022
  • Lemon-Herb Dressing. This dressing is one of my go-to’s when I’m making a pasta salad. It has a little bit of everything in it—lemon zest, fresh herbs like parsley and thyme, and olive oil.
  • Orange-Honey Vinaigrette. I love this dressing because it’s so simple: just orange juice, honey, olive oil, mustard powder (or Dijon), vinegar, salt and pepper!
  • Pesto Dressing. Pesto is typically made out of fresh basil leaves, pine nuts (or walnuts), parmesan cheese, salt/pepper/olive oil/butter and garlic powder/onion powder—you get the idea!
  • Honey-Mustard Dressing. This dressing is a great way to add a little sweetness and spice to your salad. It’s also an excellent way to enjoy the flavors of honey and mustard, which are two of my favorite ingredients.
  • Avocado Ranch Dressing. If you’re looking for a creamy dressing for your meal, this is the one for you. Avocado Ranch Dressing contains all the good stuff: avocado, ranch, sour cream, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder and cilantro.
  • Raspberry Vinaigrette. This vinaigrette is perfect for adding a hint of sweetness and tartness to any dish! It works particularly well on salads because it has a nice balance between sweet and sour flavors that really complements the natural flavors in fruits like raspberries (or even stone fruits like peaches!).
  • Creamy Caesar Dressing. This dressing is a classic, and it’s a great way to add a little kick to your pasta. Just add 1/2 cup of mayonnaise to 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce.
  • Honey-Lime Vinaigrette. If you want something sweet but not too sweet (and not super creamy), then this is the dressing for you! Just combine 1/4 cup honey with 2 tablespoons lime juice and a dash of salt.
  • Creamy Italian Herb Vinaigrette. This dressing is simple and flavorful, and it complements the other ingredients in the salad. It’s also really easy to make—just mix together olive oil, vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, basil, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper!
  • Buttermilk Ranch Dressing. This is another classic dressing that never fails me. It’s great because it has a creamy texture that goes so well with the crunch of the veggies and other ingredients in this dish.
