Ok so I don't want to give away EVERYTHING in the 21 Day Fix plan, but I do plan to share some great recipes, as well as my progress and meal plans. So, first up are the salad dressings that are recommended in the program. You certainly don't have to do the program to make them! I've tried the Balsamic Vinaigrette and it was awesome!
Note: You can store leftover dressings in a covered container in the refrigerator. Some of the dressings may thicken when cold, so, place in room temperature for about 30 minutes and stir before serving.
