This really is The Best Strawberry Dressing and it’s seriously addicting. It is simple to make and tastes great on many salads!
I’ve never met a person who wouldn’t enjoy this fresh, colorful and tasty Strawberry Salad Dressing. It requires a few simple ingredients and about 5 minutes of your time, so make sure you don’t skip this recipe.
This dressing pairs so well with spinach that it is impossible to stop eating, so make sure you prepare some extra. If you have some dressing leftover, just store it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days —although it’s so good that I doubt it will last that long. I usually add a few whole strawberries and some nuts (like roasted walnuts or pine nuts) to a bed of baby spinach leaves and then pour a generous amount of this dressing on top. I bet that grilled chicken would go really well with all this goodness too!!!
I love all the fruit/berries based salad dressings during the summer. I also make an AWESOME raspberry salad recipe (it is coming soon on Cooktoria, so stay posted).
You can prepare this dressing in the hand-chopper, food processor or, like me, in a Ninja Smoothie Cup. 🙂 I got this Ninja blender as a present from my husband a while ago and I use it every single day! I found it’s really easy to prepare the dressings in the smoothie cup, and I store it in the same cup too to avoid the extra cleaning.
Hope you guys enjoy The Best Strawberry Dressing and use this recipe on a regular basis!
- 1/3 cup canola oil (see note)
- 4 large chopped strawberries
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
- Blend all the ingredients together in a mini hand chopper or food processor until the dressing looks smooth.
Note: you may use avocado, peanut, grape seed or any other vegetable oil that has a neutral flavor instead of canola oil.

This dressing was delicious!
Thank you so much, Arlene!
Can you use something other than honey?
Hi Terri! Maple syrup should work as well.
Is there anything I could use to replace the vinegar? I don’t like vinaigrettes but the recipe just looks so good!
Hi Elyssa! I’ve never done this before, but lemon juice might work great for this recipe. Thanks!
Where did you get that adorable little salad dressing jar?
Hi Cleo! I bought it from Christmas Tree Shops a few years ago. I am not sure if they still have it.
Can you use a regular blender?
I use smoothie cups that came with my Ninja blender, but regular blender works too. 🙂
Can I use extra virgin oil instead of canola oil?
Yes. However, it will alter the flavor a little.
Very good! So light and fresh tasting. I used pomegranate jelly as a sweetener and added a couple tablespoons of light mayo to thicken it it a bit.
I am happy you enjoyed it, Anita!
I have to add this to my homemade salad dressing list…can’t wait to try!!!
Thanks, KC! I love this dressing too!
can i use frozen strawberries? maybe defrost it first?
I have never tried this dressing with frozen strawberries, Lani. Let me know how it turned out, and make sure you thaw the strawberries first.
Tania I must give credit where credit is due girl this strawberry salad dressing is soooo good I did use a few more strawberries than the recipe suggested cause I really love strawberries.But I must say I will be making this dressing on a regular basis Thank you
Thank you, GeeGee! I am so happy you loved the dressing!!! It is one of my favorite. 🙂
I just made this- and oh my gosh I am BLOW AWAY!! It tasted amazing!!!! And super amazing ingredients that you cam feel good about. Way to go!
Thank you so much, Ali! I told you – it’s THE BEST Strawberry Dressing! 🙂
Can I use olive oil instead of canola
Sure! Olive oil adds a little different flavor and scent, but I’ve made this dressing with olive oil before, and I loved it. Cannot wait to hear how you enjoyed it, Roxie!
Love this recipe so much! When I saw it I thought of a fruit salad instead and it still worked! I didn’t have any honey, so I used 1 tablespoon of sugar instead and it was still great!
Great! I am so happy you enjoyed this recipe, Cheyanne! Have a great weekend, my friend!
This seriously looks good enough to drink! I love how simple it is to make – I am all about the homemade dressings now, but need to get more creative than my usual lime/lemon based dressings. I’m trying this one as soon as I get some strawberries. 🙂
Thank you, Kate! I LOVE fruit dressings. Hope you’ll give it a try, my dear!
Such a beautiful dressing! I bet that it does an excellent job of divulging a sweets craving without eating any desserts! Yum!
Thank you, Mackenzie! 🙂
YUM! I have to try this dressing it’s so pretty! Your salad looks delicious too
Thank you, Sam! Hope you’ll give it a try!
Can you substitute the white wine vinegar for something else?
Hi Lorrie! This dressing tastes bast when made with white wine vinegar. Hope you’ll give it a try!
I used apple cider vinegar and it still tasted for! Gives it a little extra fruitiness!
This sounds ridiculously amazing. I’ve just started making my own dressings- they taste so much better than store bought! Next time I’m at the store I’ll definitely get some strawberries and try this!
Thanks, Sarah! It’s really easy to make and tastes fantastic!
Love the simplicity of this one!! And the color is to die for!
Thank you, Natasha! This is one of my favorite dressings!
Now this sounds interesting!
