Our Favorite Olive Oil & Vinegar Salad Dressing

I take my glass salad dressing container with a plastic removable pour spout (or a pint size jar with lid). In it, I put a little sweetener (raw honey usually), about 1/2 teaspoon each of sea salt and onion powder, along with 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. I also add dried herbs, but more liberally, about 1 to 1-1/2 teaspoons of each. Usually I pick dill because that is my favorite herb flavor for salad dressing. Over all this, I fill the container 1/4 to 1/3 of the way up with raw apple cider vinegar or balsamic vinegar (or some of each). I put the lid on and shake it all up. I remove the lid and fill the rest of the container up with extra virgin olive oil and a dash of toasted sesame seed oil. Replace lid and shake well before each serving.

    Thanks for the great recipe. It’s the first one I’ve tried since I stumbled onto your website. I’ll be back to try more I’m sure. It’s so nice to find someone out there who eats similarly to our family…and to get some new recipes. Thanks again!
