lunch!

It's the little things in life. I just found white peach balsamic vinegar and lemon olive oil at our grocery store. It may have made my day.

I came home and made a deeeeelicious salad: spinach, beets, walnuts, blue cheese, and a simple oil and vinegar dressing made with my two tasty finds.

grapefruit vinaigrette

Yet another tasty vinaigrette! This was great over some spinach - I really didn't need anything else with it.

Grapefruit Vinaigrette

1/3 cup ruby red grapefruit juice

2 tablespoon white wine vinegar

1/2 cup canola oil

1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon honey

Whisk to combine.

tomato vinaigrette

I'm kind of obsessed with making my own vinaigrettes. I think they're so versatile, and I always have ingredients on hand to make exactly what I'm in the mood for. This was a new one for me, but I like it!

Tomato Vinaigrette

1/2 teaspoon salt (you may want to start with less)

1/8 teaspoon pepper

1 small chopped tomato

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon dijon mustard

1/4 teaspoon dried basil

1 small crushed garlic clove

Throw everything into a blender and enjoy!
