This Cajun dip and salad dressing is versatile and bold. It makes a flavorful dressing for a wedge salad and is equally delicious as a dip for raw vegetables, onion rings, chicken nuggets, or fries. Adjust the amount of Cajun seasoning to suit your taste — use a little less when making a dressing for leafy greens and a bit more when you want a spicy dipping sauce. The final flavor is best if you use a low-sodium store-bought Cajun seasoning or a homemade mix so you can control the salt.
The Perfect Dressing For A Wedge Salad
We served this tangy, creamy dressing over a simple wedge of crisp iceberg lettuce. The cool crunch of the lettuce pairs beautifully with the spicy, creamy dressing for a classic contrast of textures and flavors.
