This Thyme, Mustard and Apple Cider Dressing is one of my favourite salad dressings, it’s so delicious! What’s best about this recipe is that all of the ingredients go into the blender and are blended up for a minute. It makes it a very quick recipe, the most time consuming part is getting the ingredients together. I will often make this most weeks and keep it in a jar in the fridge. I can then pull together a tasty salad very quickly, even if it’s just some simple ingredients like cos lettuce, avocado and toasted walnuts. Drizzle with this dressing and you have a delicious salad. This dressing would also be perfect on my Beetroot, Apple and Feta Salad. Leave out the olive oil and white wine vinegar and replace with a few tablespoons of this dressing instead.
Make sure you use olive oil for this recipe, don’t use sunflower oil or rapeseed oil, these are very refined oils and not good for you at all. You can read more about this here.
