Dressed To Impress:

House-Made Dressings You Can Feel Good About

November 8th, 2022 | By Tisha Riman

From the beginning of Impact Kitchen’s conception, our goal was to provide our community with the highest-quality, unprocessed, whole foods to maintain optimal nutrition and food integrity. We know how hard it can be to have healthy and nutritious options, especially when you’re busy and on the go. 

One of our core philosophies at Impact Kitchen is to eat real food—and we take that commitment seriously. Everything, from our baked goods to our dressings, is made with whole, unprocessed ingredients. 

Quality is Key

Did you know that all of Impact Kitchen’s salad dressings are house-made, free of preservatives and use extra virgin olive oil instead of industrial seed oils?

If you didn’t know, industrial seed oils are highly processed vegetable oils (made from soybeans, canola oil, cottonseed and safflower seeds) that have been refined, bleached and deodorized. While these oils are fine in moderation, they are higher in pro-inflammatory omega-6s, and a large consumption of these oils can throw off your delicate omega-3 to omega-6 balance, leading to an increase in inflammation. Impact Kitchen uses healthy fats like extra virgin olive oil, grass-fed butter and coconut oil, all of which offer unique health benefits to reduce inflammation and keep that omega-3/6 ratio balanced. (If you want to read more about the healthy fats we use, check out our post here.)

Every day, our commissary kitchen prepares and delivers freshly made dressings to each Impact location, so we can ensure that our customers and community receive the highest quality, nutrient-dense menu items. Here are some of our favourite dressings (and the menu items that come with them!):
