Salad Dressings

Growing up in Brazil, we didn't have commerical salad dressings available in stores. At home we would use ingredients such as lime juice and olive oil for our salads. The results were bright tastes, healthy salads, and above all freshness. My line of Simply Sassy sauces captures that spirit and delivers it to your home.

The next time you are in the supermarket, check out the list of ingredients of the commercial sald dressings. Chances are the number 1 ingredient will be water - no wonder they are mostly bland and require artificial colors, flavorings and 'texture enhancers'. You're almost certainly not going to find extra virgin olive oil listed. You will also see ingredients such as xanthum gum, corn syrup, citric acid, preservatives and other stuff that you probably don't want to include in your diet.

All of my dressings are made personally by me, in small batches, using the best ingredients. I use organic ingredients when available, and none of my dressings include preservatives or any fillers. All you pay for is 100% taste. You can tell the difference just looking at my sauces. The Herbed Balsamic is thick and rich from the generous amount of herbs and spices added to the extra virgin olive oil. My Honey Mustard is a rich golden color, not because of artificial colors, but because of the rich golden honey and traditionally made Dijon mustard that I use.

You will soon start to see Simply Sassy products in fine food and health food stores. Our online shopping cart will be available in a couple of weeks. In the meantime, you can purchase our products by emailing us at info@realfoodrealliving.com. Please include your phone number so that we can call you to confirm your preferences.

Our Pomegranate Vinaigrette launched the company, and is unlike anything that you have ever tried before. Its flavor is a touch sweet, a touch sour AND all sophistication.

Our Pomegranate Molasses Vinaigrette is best with perky lettuces such as Arugula and Endive. You DO NOT want to use this dressing with Iceberg Lettuce.

Sometimes known as a modern version of Momma's Little Helper, our Pom dressing also makes vegetables such as Asparagus, Brussel Sprouts, Broccoli and Peppers appetizing to people who othewise don't like eating vegetables on a daily basis.

One of the most popular uses is as a sauce for steak, pork and fishes paired with robust salads.

Most honey mustard dressings available in supermarkets are either boring, too sweet or too 'dead' on the tongue. Our Honey Mustard is so different that I wish we could create a whole new category.

Sure, the local honey that we use is sweet, but we mix it with a luxurious Dijon mustard blend that adds both depth of flavor and smoothness of texture. A little Apple Cider Vinegar adds a little tartness.

Our favorite use for this product is as a dressing on grilled salmon. It works equally well on chicken, as a substitute for (unhealthy) mayonnaise on sandwiches. It's mellower flavor also makes it suitable for a wide variety of lettuces and salad greens. Check out our recipe section for some great ideas.

Our newest creation! Our Herbed Balsamic Vinaigrette is in a league all its own. Made from extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, with a blend of carefully chosen herbs and spices, it offers a depth of taste that you cannot find in any commerical brand.

It works equally well as a dressing for an arugula and tomato salad, as a dipping sauce for bread or as a special touch to an italian antipasta.
