Buying Store Bought 21 Day Fix Dressing

The program’s nutrition guide provides homemade recipes, but we realize it can be a lot to meal prep without adding in homemade dressings.

We are all about keeping it simple so that you are consistent about making healthy choices.

It’s just about choosing the right pre-packaged option. You’ll need to read labels.

Here are a few guidelines to choosing a good quality dressing:

• Avoid artificial colors or sweeteners (including high fructose corn syrup)
• Also, avoid preservatives like Natamycin, MSD and Sodium Benzoate
• Skip any with Soybean, Canola, or Partially Hydronated Oils
• Look for olive oil or balsamic based dressings
• Natural spices, lemon, and garlic are all great additions

Brands we love:

• Nature’s Path
• Newman’s Own
• Bolthouse Farms
• Walden Farms
