As much as I like a good salad, I love a good salad dressing!Really good salad dressings are hard to come by. The bottled stuff you buy in the store is okay, but nothing beats a good, home made dressing.
This is one of my favourite salad dressings. It's got tons of flavour, and it keeps for days in the fridge.
I made this salad this morning while cleaning out my fridge. I used lettuce, a couple of tomatoes, two spring onions and salad wheat (-you can use bulgur instead of the salad wheat).
Honey Dijon vinagrette
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
3 teaspoons Dijon mustard
3 to 4 teaspoons honey
6 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
black pepper
1/2 cup canola oil
Mix the six first ingredients. Emulsify with canola oil, menaing whisk in a little at a time so the dressing thickens.
Let set in the fridge a couple of hours before you serve it.

Looks yum, Eva
For whatever reason, it takes a lot for me to eat a salad.
My favorite salads have to be Caesar salad and Cobb salad.
I'd love to be more of a salad person. Maybe this summer I start force feeding myself!
kitty, Caesar salad is one of my absolute favourite salads too!
Don't force yourself onto salad. I believe that the happier we are, the more healthier we are and trust me, nothing is more depressing than eating food you don't like. (Okay, I can probably think of a couple of more depressing things, but...)
If you ever come over to my place, I'll treat you to my favourite pizza. It's a promise! :-)
