Sometimes I go a little overboard with dressing up my salad. Just a little over the top.
Sometimes I layer it in creamy sauces and deep, rich, lively vinaigrettes.
Sometimes I want my salad to be ready for the ball, when it really just wants to hang out with lettuce and tomato, on some casual, laid-back Friday afternoon.
For a girl who enjoys practicing the art of simplicity, I sure did lose sight of the simply dressed salad.
Until tonight, of course.
Honey, here’s your wake up call…
…sometimes you can’t beat simple.
A drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
A dash of freshly ground sea salt.
A squeeze or two of honey.
Simple. Perfect.
Simply Perfect.
Question: What is your favorite way to dress a salad? Vinaigrettes? Creamy dressings? Oil and vinegar?
I love honey; I could drizzle it on anything. I put it on my quinoa for dinner tonight.
Try maple syrup next time
Mmm…I’m trying that next time around!
Beautiful and healthy!
There’s always a jar of homemade dressing in my fridge – olive oil, vinegar and mustard, with maybe some herbs and spices or a pinch of sugar mixed in. When it gets low, I just add more!
Garlic Gold Oil or balsamic vinegar usually provide the perfect finishing touches for my salads. Lately, however, I have really come to appreciate a touch of honey. It adds just a wee bit of sweet delight to each bite!
I’ve heard so many wonderful things about Garlic Gold Oil. I need to find some.
I love just a good drizzle of olive oil, but sometimes a tangy vinaigrette works, such as with roasted vegetables. Massaged with avocado is one of my favorites when I just want simple.
I’m a creamy dressing girl, which bothers me to no end. Ha, ha. I wish I liked the oil-based dressings more. Although I do like Italian at least!
I like Vinaigrettes. I love salads and dressing them up with a bunch of toppings and a littl dressing.
That looks so delicious! I love raspberry vinaigrette. Growing up my dad would always put vinegar and olive oil- I think it’s a European thing
Mmm…raspberry vinaigrette is one of my personal favorites too. Delicious.
Until very recently, I didn’t like salad dressing, but I’m currently in love with the Green Goddess dressing from How It All Vegan!
Mmm now I’m craving some fresh veggies.
I’ve been seeing Green Goddess dressing everywhere. It sounds amazing. I really need to jump on that bandwagon and make some.
