Strawberry Balsamic Vinaigrette

Strawberry Balsamic Vinaigrette

We were going to a friend’s house for a birthday celebration and I wanted to make a special salad to go with dinner. I went online in search of a summery vinaigrette and found one at Barefeet In The Kitchen that looked perfect. I adapted it a bit by using fresh strawberries, basil instead of rosemary, and a bit of vegetable oil. It couldn’t have been easier to make. It tasted a little bit sweet, a little bit tart, and tangy. It was light, flavorful, and perfectly delicious. This vinaigrette was a big hit with everyone except for my son, who wasn’t a fan. I will be making this again… SOON. Thanks for the great recipe, Mary!

  1. I JUST bought that same little salad dressing pourer!! Now I just need to fill it with this vinaigrette and we’ll really be twins. 😛

    1. Mine lasted three days in the refrigerator. It didn’t go bad – we used it all up. 🙂
