I do chortle to myself when people say that salads are BORING. I then have to ask what they are putting in their salads to make them a culinary flatliner. Usually they put your very droll and run of the mill veges in there like iceberg lettuce and well – if that’s what you think is a salad – better get with the program! Flavour is abundant with salads if you know what you are doing and one thing that is very important is knowing what dressing will make it delicious and healthy too! This Herb and Garlic Vinaigrette will certainly do the trick!
This dressing has evolved ever since one day I boughta BBQ Chicken from Coles for the first time since returning from the USA and they had changed the packaging.. it not looked like a chicken in a hand bag hence the name. Since it now had a fancy name.. I figured I better make a fancy dressing to go with it!
Now as time has gone by, this dressing has certainly had more things added to it but when it started, it was only
2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp of balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp of honey
1 tbsf of minced garlic
1 tsp of mixed dried herbs
I’ve since added and mixed it around some since then but it certainly has got better the more I played with it!
