Everyone knows that an amazing dressing is the secret to a great salad.
Registered dietitians generally prefer homemade salad dressings to store-bought for some good reasons.

From green goddess to balsamic to a lemon-turmeric vinaigrette, these are their nine favorite options.
It also happens to be really delicious!
says Amy Gorin, M.S., R.D.N., owner ofAmy Gorin Nutrition.
