I am so tired of looking at dressing ingredients and nutritional information labels! 😱 It is so difficult to find a healthy keto-friendly dressing with the proper oils is so difficult! I keep hearing more and more about the damage seed oils do to our health. The oils are damaged in the manufacturing process and can lead to inflammation, heart disease, and cancer. You want to avoid these oils: Soybean, Canola, Corn, Safflower, Sunflower, and Grapeseed. Canola is one of the least bad, but I still try to avoid it. So, I have been on a mission to eliminate them as much as possible from my diet. That leads to a mayo/salad dressing conundrum because seed oils are in SO much!
I wrote another blog post about finally giving up my beloved Hellman’s mayonnaise because of the soybean oil. I did find another mayo I liked. The Sir Kensington Avocado Oil Mayo tastes great and has really good clean ingredients, so I’m happy to say I have bid the Hellman’s mayo bye-bye! Here’s the nutritional information on Sir Kensington’s Mayo. Make sure it is this particular mayo as it has the best ingredients. It’s difficult to find in the grocery stores, but this 2 pack on Amazon is a great way to buy it and you can also buy it in a large jar. I know it’s more expensive than the unhealthy mayos but it’s just too important to stay away from all the unhealthy oils.

That brings us to what to do about salad dressings. A few are doable, but even those can have some not-so-great ingredients and chemicals. I‘ve just decided to stop looking and make my salad dressings. That way I have complete control over the dressings and they are fresh and taste great! But I’ve also been using these McCormick Just 5 spice mixes for an easy shortcut to Italian and Ranch dressings, and I use the French Onion Dip Mix to make dip, and I also use it and the other spice mixes in cooking!
I found the best price for these three spice mixes on Amazon. They also aren’t that easy to find in stores. You can buy single packets or multiple packets. I’ve tried to put the most economical buying options.😊
The most inexpensive way to purchase these is in a pack of 12. That sounds like a lot, but I use them in so many things!
Ranch
French Onion
Garden Herb Italian Dressing & Seasoning Mix
Just mix the French onion blend with sour cream, the ranch blend with mayo and sour cream for a great easy dressing, and the Italian blend with a healthy oil and vinegar of choice. They also are good in so many other recipes and you don’t have to worry about the ingredients! 🥗 😊
