This sweet balsamic dressing is so easy, just two ingredients. And itโ€™s fat-free and delicious. How on earth is that possible. We donโ€™t know but we know that it is! Our Salad Dressing topic is brought to you by Stonyfield Organic.

This is a dressing recipe that my mom gave me years ago. Like at least 12 years ago. Iโ€™ve been making it ever since. The reason that I make it all the time is that itโ€™s delicious, itโ€™s fat-free and Iโ€™ve memorized it so I donโ€™t need to go searching for the ingredient list.

Of course, when you can make homemade salad dressing with only balsamic vinegar and honey, itโ€™s pretty easy to memorize. This recipe is quick and perfect for a simple, fresh salad.

Making Sweet Balsamic Dressing

This balsamic salad dressing has two ingredients and theyโ€™re in equal amounts. Honey and balsamic vinegar. Thatโ€™s it! Put the ingredients in a jar. Put on the lid and shake it hard. Done.

You hardly need directions for that, but there you go!

Using Balsamic Dressing

Itโ€™s totally delicious, especially on a salad that has sweet ingredients, like the one above with strawberries and sauteed sugar snap peas on some fresh greens.

You could also use it as kind of a glaze over roasted veggies like Brussels sprouts or butternut squash. Delicious.
