The school year is winding down for us this week, the countdown is on! I am so ready for summer break to get started and slooooow down. I am sure that I’m not alone in feeling this way! The month of May kind of kicked me in the butt so it will be nice to not feel like we have somewhere to be or go or do for a while. It’s possible that I may start cooking proper dinners again too. 😉

Oh hey there summer…

New Smyrna Beach, FL

You all know I’m a salad girl and making quick vinaigrettes with whatever I have on hand is definitely my thing. I tend to stick with basic ingredients and feel like I hit the lottery when I have an practically empty jar of mustard or preserves on hand. Those jars and it’s remnants make the best dressings, if you haven’t tried it you must.

This Honey Balsamic Vinaigrette is a very simple dressing I make all the time, since it’s ingredients are ones I always have. This dressing is wonderful drizzled over a flank steak salad or even grilled chicken as a way to jazz it up a bit.

Honey Balsamic Salad Dressing Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • pinch coarse salt and fresh ground pepper

That’s it! It really doesn’t get much easier than this basic honey balsamic dressing. It’s so good on so many salads.

Kitchen tip:  I love using jars like these to make and store my homemade vinaigrettes and dressings. They are the perfect size.
