I always have been intimidated by vinaigrette’s since I never gave myself the opportunity to make them. However, they’re actually quite easy and a much healthier option than creamy, store-bought dressings that have more ingredients than you would care to read let alone try to pronounce. This was my first one I tried making and I was very happy with it! I hope you are as well, definitely try it over your strawberry spinach salad next time you make it!
