Sweet & Savory Balsamic Dressing
This has become a real go-to dressing for me. These flavors pair so well together, it truly makes your salad mouth-watering. Did I just use “mouth-watering'” and salad in the same sentence? Yes guys and gals! My favorite salad to create for this dressing is a kale salad with garlic roasted veggies, like these ones I make here.
Ingredients:
- 4 tbsp hemp oil (I use Manitoba Harvest)
- 2 tbsp balsamic glaze (I use Trader Joe’s brand)
- 2 tbsp honey mustard
- garlic salt to taste
*recipe makes 4 servings
If you are worried about sugar content, this recipe is easily adaptable by substituting balsamic glaze for balsamic vinegar and honey mustard for regular mustard. Then, you can add a dash of agave or honey and control the amount yourself. I get my hemp oil from Vitacost.com, and it even comes refrigerated, as this type of oil NEEDS to be kept cold at all times to retain its nutritional properties. If you’d like $10 off your first order, use my referral link. No secrets here, I get $10 off too! Thank you in advance!
