Dressing Up for Spring!

Here at Olivia’s HQ, we love salads in all shapes and sizes (you’re shocked, we can tell). From an elegant side salad that’s nothing more than arugula and a light vinaigrette to a hearty, main course salad with a host of flavors and textures, we can’t get enough of ‘em!

From the greens to the proteins, there are so many varieties of deliciousness that can go into a great salad. But don’t forget about the dressings! The right dressing can round out the taste and texture of any salad.

This week, we’re spotlighting four of our favorite dressing recipes and green pairings – perfect for a delicious springtime salad!

Blueberry Basil Vinaigrette – Blueberries, basil and honey add a seasonal boost to this traditional vinaigrette. Pro tip: It pairs extremely well with Olivia’s Baby Kale!

Orange Balsamic Vinaigrette – Dijon mustard is a winning secret ingredient in plenty of dressings. Not only does is add dynamic flavor (without many calories!), it also acts as an emulsifier and binds the oil and vinegar for a wonderful blended texture. This dressing gets a scoop of Dijon and some fresh orange juice for a bright and zesty combo that finds its perfect match with Olivia’s Spring Mix.

Green Goddess Dressing – Here’s a trending flavor combo that’s become an absolute classic. Fresh herbs and light mayo and sour cream are the secret to an extra delicious and extra healthy take on the OG GG. Pair this one with Olivia’s Power Greens (and maybe some chilled shrimp).

Creamy Jalapeno Dressing – If you can’t take the heat … This is one dressing that really benefits from repeated attempts. Make sure you take note of how much jalapeno (and seeds) gives you and your family just the right level of spice. The spice of this dressing makes a great duo with Olivia’s Baby Spinach.

Ta da! Four delectable dressing recipes perfect for your next salad adventure.
