May I encourage you to experiment with your own salad dressings if you haven't already started!? Nothing beats the taste of a fresh vinaigrette or hearty cream dressing on your salad in the area of taste or nutrition. There are so many different flavors to experiment with. Maple mustard vinaigrette is an easy one to start with.

If you are a salad dressing pro, share your tips with the rest of us, we love sharing recipes and tips here.

Maple mustard vinaigrette pairs beautifully with a baby green salad topped with some thinly sliced radishes! Oh, my! Also, try maple-mustard vinaigrette on arugula! The peppery taste of arugula is accented beautifully by the tartness of the mustard and sweetness of maple. If you love arugula you might want to try my Chicken and Pear Salad as well.

This is a tart vinaigrette so adding berries works well too, try raspberries, strawberries or whatever you have on hand. Kids love maple-mustard vinaigrette with pears and apples as well.

If you are following a strict low carb diet and prefer not to use any maple syrup, try adding a few drops of maple extract to a tablespoon of water and 1-2 tablespoons of powdered erythritol. When I make this vinaigrette I divide it in half before I sweeten it. Although I don't have a problem eating this dressing occasionally while staying in ketosis!

I like tart foods, so 1-2 tablespoons of sweetener in this recipe is just right for me, but my kids like it sweeter. Try adding the sweetener 1 tablespoon at a time and tasting as you go until you get it adjusted to your preference.

If you're trying to make salads part of your lifestyle, consider some useful tools like:

  • A salad spinner to get excess water off leafy greens
  • Salad dressing bottle with measurements
