Maple-Balsamic Vinaigrette
Serve on any mixed green salad. Nutrition Bonus: Bottled salad dressings usually contain hydrogenated (artificially saturated) oils. Olive oil is high in monounsaturated fat, which does not raise "bad" LDL blood cholesterol as saturated fat does.
Makes about 1/3 cup
Ingredients
2 tbsp olive oil, preferably extra-virgin 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar 2 tsp pure maple syrup 2 tsp grainy mustard Salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste
In a small bowl, whisk oil, vinegar, maple syrup, mustard, salt and pepper until blended. (Alternatively, combine ingredients in a small jar, secure the lid and shake.)
