Thousand Island Salad Dressing

Want to know how to make your own Thousand Island dressing? It’s still a popular dressing for good reason. Thousand Island was the salad dressing most often seen on the table in my childhood.

And while this zesty-sweet old-fashioned dressing will never replace our beloved ranch, it’s nostalgic for me. Whenever it’s on hand, I can’t resist using it.

Did you know that you can turn Thousand Island salad dressing into Russian dressing? Add ½ teaspoon of plain or sweet paprika and 2 teaspoons of horseradish to the recipe below. Feel free to adjust both to taste.

We use Thousand Island or Russian dressing on these Reuben Sliders and in this Corned Beef Dip. Both of which disappear about as quickly as I can serve them!

Whether you prefer creamy and savory dressings or sweet and tart vinaigrettes, there’s no end to the variety of homemade salad dressings you can make.

Dijon mustard, garlic, oregano, and red pepper are delightfully brightened by fresh lemon juice in this Zesty Italian Dressing. Chipotle, garlic, and lime are combined in this homemade salad dressing to create a crazy flavorful Chipotle Vinaigrette that you are going to love.

Sweet and slightly tangy, this creamy poppyseed dressin has had a regular home in our refrigerator for several years. Easy to make and adaptable as can be, this is the best poppy seed dressing I’ve ever tasted.

This Bang Bang Sauce has become one of our go-to dips for roasted vegetables over the past year or so. It’s creamy, tangy, sweet, and just a little bit spicy.

White Balsamic Vinaigrette is light, sweet, and tangy with just enough oil to coat a salad and not leave it soggy. This vinaigrette is part of my very favorite summer salad recipe, my sister Jenny’s Orange Parsley Salad.

This Cafe Rio copycat recipe for Creamy Tomatillo Salad Dressing is creamy, tangy, and just the teeniest bit spicy. It’s perfect for drizzling over salads or tacos, or for dipping fresh vegetables.
