Honey Lime Dressing

July 1, 2025 Amanda Plott

If salads had superpowers, Honey Lime Dressing would be their secret weapon. This dressing perfectly balances the zingy tartness of lime with the mellow sweetness of honey, creating a flavor profile that’s bright, refreshing, and downright addictive. Whether drizzled over a bed of fresh greens, tossed with grilled chicken, or even as a dip for roasted veggies, this dressing takes your healthy meals from “meh” to “heck yeah!”

Why Honey and Lime?

Lime juice isn’t just a tangy taste explosion; it’s loaded with vitamin C and antioxidants. Honey, on the other hand, lends natural sweetness plus antibacterial properties without the sugar crash of refined sweeteners. The duo makes for a guilt-free dressing that’s as good for your body as it is for your taste buds…
