How do you like to dress up your salads?

If you're like me, you add everything except the kitchen sink.  I love my salads with a variety of ingredients but I especially like using a homemade vinaigrette; vinaigrette is so simple to make at home and it's quick, as well as easy. 

My newest homemade vinaigrette recipe is a Fresh Peach concoction.  Slightly sweet and a little sour, the fresh peach flavors blend so well with a Herb salad mix.  Don't be afraid to experiment.  Some of the best recipes come from our kitchen inventions. 


  • Mixed Greens Salad with Fresh Peach Vinaigrette; At Home With Rebecka


Fresh Peach Vinaigrette:

1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
1/8 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon honey
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 teaspoon green onion chopped white part only
1/2 juice from 1/2 lime
1 small ripe peach peeled and stone removed


Method:

Mix together first seven ingredients in a mason jar, cover with lid add shake until honey is dissolved, peel and pit fresh peach, cut peach into small pieces and place into a small food processor, pour vinaigrette over peaches and blend until smooth. Toss greens lightly with dressing. Add fresh sliced tomato wedges for added color and flavor.

Add a few tablespoons of crumbled blue cheese and a handful of Mrs. Cubbison's Resturant Style Crutons. YUM!

  8. Rebecka- So glad you linked up with the Two for Tuesday recipe blog hop. This dressing sounds so good, especially since my peaches are nearly ripe on the tree. I'll be looking for new ways to use them soon.
