Have we ever talked about salad dressing?

New posts
Yep, I agree Mangy. It's a little on the high fat side though. But you're right, if I ate it every day from now on, I would be a happy girl.
And yes, you're right too about the BC, honey & fig. It IS heaven!
 
Yum, these all sound delish! I never thought my mouth would water at the thought of SALAD!
 
Carol, I'm thinking I'm just gonna skip the salad and just drink the dressings.
 
The problem with salad dressings is that they expire before I can use them up. I've resorted to making a quick Jamie Oliver dressing:

Olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper.

He has several variations -- such as throwing in some whole grain mustard. Only takes a minute and I always have the ingredients on hand!
 
Me too, tis. I like this combo as well. I think y'all have convinced me just to dump those bottles and make it up...even if I'm feeling lazy.

What's wrong with eating blue cheese on a regular basis?? It's good for you. The blue part is a probiotic, which is good for your digestive health. :cool:

Just discovered blue cheese on bread atop a fig swizzled with honey. Thought I had died and gone to heaven. :clap:

Mango, I LOVE this! I make little crostinis topped with fig preserves & crumbled Gorgonzola & drizzle it with honey for hors d'oeuvres at Christmas & they are ALWAYS a hit! Of course, it's hard not to eat them while I'm making them! :drool:
 
My favorite is
1/2 cup real lemon juice (bottled)
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
1/4 cup sugar
lemon zest (optional)
salt & pepper to taste
Mix all this in a blender on high, slowly add 2 cups extra virgin olive oil while the blender is still going, on medium. Allow to blend for a while. This keeps in a cool place for a week or so...you can also keep it in the frig, but the oil congeals.
 
Sounds tangy!!! Thanks, honey!
 
The sugar mellows it a bit..it is great on everything!! I also marinate chicken and shrimp in it before cooking (grill or saute')
 
It's on the list!!! I'm done with chicken pretty much, but I'll give it a whirl on shrimp....soon!!
xoxo
