Delectable Raspberry Vinaigrette

Delectable Raspberry Vinaigrette

This simple recipe for Raspberry Vinaigrette is so simple to make. This bright pink dressing will add a special touch to your salads. You can use different berries in place of raspberries as well, like strawberries in place of the raspberries.

A few years ago my friend and I would go over to Wendy’s and have a summer salad with spinach salad with, red onion, strawberries, chicken chunks, and nuts. They served it with a Vinaigrette Salad Dressing. It was delicious!

In the summer I always have fresh raspberries but you can use frozen berries to make this salad dressing. Just let them defrost first and follow the recipe.

I absolutely love this Raspberry Vinaigrette Dressing on a good salad! A berry dressing adds a nutritional value plus gives a sweet taste to any salad.

Serve your family yummy fresh salads with any combination of the following ingredients for a delicious nutrient packed meal!

  • Spinach
  • Mixed greens
  • Strawberries
  • Blackberries
  • Blueberries

For a this recipe all you need is a food processor and about 10 minutes of prep time, and you’ll have an amazingly raspberry vinaigrette.

INGREDIENTS YOU NEED….

Raspberries…I have a raspberry patch in my garden and it is so wonderful to be able to pick your own. I freeze a lot so I always have some on hand for so many recipes.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Red Wine Vinegar

Lemon juice

Honey…..To sweeten just a bit.

Garlic powder

Salt & Pepper

Add dressing to a glass jar with a lid to store this raspberry vinaigrette for up to a week in the fridge. The dressing sometimes separates after sitting in the fridge, but if you shake it up you will get that smooth texture again!

 If you’ve never tried a good raspberry vinaigrette, I highly recommend it!
