I shared our recent Strawberry Picking trip yesterday. We brought home about a gallon of fresh berries and lots of ideas of what to do with them all. Since I had just gotten a new Merlot Vinegar at the Farmer's Market on Thursday, I thought that the vinegar mixed with the berries would make a great summer salad dressing.
Ingredients:
6-8 Strawberries hulled
1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 Tablespoons Merlot Red Wine Vinegar (Or a red wine vinegar of your choice)
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon dried basil
pinch of sea salt
fresh ground black pepper
Directions:
Put the strawberries, honey, vinegar, oil, basil, salt, and pepper in a food processor or blender. Pulse until it is liquefied. It's really that easy. Add more honey if you want it sweeter. You could use fresh basil too, I just didn't have any on hand.
Pour over your favorite salad and enjoy!
Those are carrots, not cheese;-)
Even my kids loved this dressing, and usually the only kind they will eat is ranch. This is definitely one that we will be making a lot this summer!
YUM! This looks so good!
