Best Simple Salad Dressing Recipe: This Vinaigrette Dressing Is Perfect for Dipping & Picky Eaters Love It by Amy Fothergill

If you have picky eaters, you know how hard it is to get them to eat vegetables or salads. I’m very lucky to have kids who are good eaters. Here’s what I have learned over the years:

If you want to entice your picky eaters to eat salad or vegetables, try my simple salad dressing recipe. It's the best vinaigrette dressing for salads, but you also can use it as a dip for vegetables or crusty bread. It's so easy, and I bet your kids will love it!
