Strawberry Vinaigrette

There is something to be said for

a good salad with a nice meal.

Often times I will make a nice

salad to go with dinner but I don't spend

any time on dressing - other than taking the

bottle out of the frig and placing it on the table.

Tonight I decided to go the extra mile

and actually make the salad dressing!

The thing about salad dressing - I think- is

that you can't necessarily depend on the

measurements as much as you have to taste

it and see what it needs.

You know~ a little of this and a pinch of that~!

Strawberry Vinaigrette

1/2 cup olive oil

1/2 pint strawberries,

washed and tops cut off

3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper

1/4 teaspoon sugar

Combine oil, berries, vinegar, salt, pepper,

and sugar in food processor.

Process in blender until berries are pureed.

Stir before using.

* Remember don't get hung up on the recipe

Taste the dressing and see what it needs*

Now doesn't that look good!
