Vinaigrette for Mixed Greens
3 tbsp
|
extra virgin olive oil
|
45 mL
|
2 tbsp
|
balsamic vinegar
|
30 mL
|
1 tbsp
|
liquid honey
|
15 mL
|
1 tsp
|
dijon mustard
|
5 mL
|
Whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl or cup.
Makes six 1 tbsp (15 mL) servings. I usually allow about 1
tablespoon dressing for every 1.5 cups (375 mL) of mixed greens.
I like to make salads from a variety of greens. In the spring I
even add dandelion leaves to the mix ... delicious. Pick the leaves
before the plant has flowered and only from areas that you know are
pesticide free.
