I have only shared two recipes for low FODMAP salad dressing on the blog before. While a dressing is véry important for a tasty salad.

I have had periods where I ate salads without dressing because I thought that the dressing would add too many calories to my salad.

When I ate a salad with dressing after such a period, I suddenly understood why I found salads so boring to eat. Luckily, I don’t worry about that anymore 😉

A good dressing adds so much to a salad! In this blog I have three basic low FODMAP salad dressings for you.

Dressings that you can use for almost every salad and that you can prepare in a few minutes.

3 recipes for a simple low FODMAP salad dressing

Maple mustard dressing

Maybe one of the most famous dressings out there: honey mustard dressing. A favourite for many people, but because honey is very limited low FODMAP I had to change it up a little bit.

In this low FODMAP maple mustard dressing I replace honey with maple syrup. This gives the dressing a sweet flavor, just like the honey does, but is low FODMAP. You can also use rice syrup as a replacement.

If you have tested fructose and you know that you tolerate honey well, then you can use honey.

Mustard is low FODMAP, you just have to check what kind of mustard you use. Some brands have added some high FODMAP ingredients.

Next to maple syrup and mustard, I use extra virgin olive oil, white wine vinegar, pepper and salt for this dressing.

Scroll down to the recipe card below for the recipe.

Low FODMAP vinaigrette dressing

Vinaigrette is a classic French salad dressing. The basis of this recipe is olive oil and white wine vinegar.

You always use 3 times as much olive oil as white wine vingar. So for example 6 tbsp olive oil and 2 tbsp white wine vinegar, like I do in this recipe.

Next to that, often honey, mustard, pepper and salt and some fresh herbs are added.

Just like in the maple mustard dressing, I replaced the honey with maple syrup.

Like that, you get a delicious low FODMAP vinaigrette salad dressing with only a handful of ingredients.

Low FODMAP yoghurt dressing

It might be one of my personal favourites: a simple yoghurt dressing. This dressing is made with yoghurt, extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, pepper, salt and fresh herbs.

I make this dressing with a thick Greek-style lactose-free yogurt. If you want to make this recipe vegan, you can use a low FODMAP plant-based yoghurt, such as coconut yogurt.

For herbs, you can pick whatever you like. I like using fresh parsley, dill and/or chives. In this dressing, I used fresh parsley and chives.

Storing the low FODMAP dressing

You can add as much dressing to your salad as you like. Do you have some left-over dressing? You can store the dressing in a closed box in the fridge. You can store it for 3-4 days.
