Raspberry Vinaigrette

Here's a perfect way to use that homemade raspberry vinegar recipe I posted earlier.  Even if you're not a big fan of fruit in your salads, this lightly sweet dressing is a delicious way to freshen up those greens.  A perfect end-of-the-summer recipe and would make a great hostess gift for that holiday dinner party. Here's how Mama makes it:

Raspberry Vinaigrette

Ingredients:
- 1/2 c. vegetable oil
- 1/2 c. raspberry vinegar (see my homemade recipe here )
- 1/3 c. sugar
- 1 T. Dijon mustard
- 1/4 t. dried oregano
- 1/2 t. freshly ground black pepper
- salt, to taste (about 1/2 t.)

Directions:

1.  Place all ingredients in a jar with a lid.  Shake to combine, store in refrigerator.

2.  Serving suggestion:  Toss spring mix salad greens with dressing; sprinkle with chopped pecans, dried cranberries, and feta cheese.  Serve as a side, or with some grilled chicken as a meal.
