Strawberry Vinaigrette
I don’t want to jinx it, but I think the summer heat is finally dying out; of course now that I said that it will probably be over 90 next week. That’s ok though because you need a few more hot sunny days to try this sweet vinaigrette recipe! I got the idea from the blog Coconut & Lime and figured it would be perfect for a nice sweet summer salad.
Homemade salad dressings used to creep me out. My mom would always tell me not to buy pre-made ones because they are so easy to make, but it took me a while to finally realize it. Now I am going to tell you exactly what my mom used to tell me, DON’T BUY PRE-MADE SALAD DRESSINGS! It really is so easy to make dressing at home and they are usually SO much healthier; not to mention you get to create your own unique dressing every time! This is a very easy vinaigrette recipe that can be turned into practically any fruity vinaigrette recipe.

Awesome photos Jenny! This looks really good.
I want to have this salad dressing with lunch! It looks gorgeous, and sounds perfectly delicious.
I love strawberry vinaigrette! I only had one good recipe to go by and now I have two! Thanks for sharing Jenny, as always, love your photos! =]
This dressing looks so tasty! I love throwing strawberries on my salad so this would be a great dressing to use!
Ha! How easy is THAT? The recipe I know is a bit more complicated but I think that this one is just as good and you don’t have to purchase overpriced, flavourless out of season strawberries!
Cheers,
Tobias
I completely agree! The only time I use store bought dressings is for the occasional marinade! The homemade is SO much better and ridiculously easy!
Mmmm, this looks delicious and SO pretty! 🙂
Im still waiting for the harsh slap of mother natures last heat wave. I don’t trust her! 😉 This vinaigrette sounds super tasty and perfect to hang on to the last bit of summer before fall and much colder weather haunts our days
