One of my favorite things about summertime is the excuse not to cook! Don’t get me wrong, I eat, but I eat cold. Keeping our non-air conditioned home cool during this time can be key and one of my favorite solutions is salads! A little lettuce and everything you’ve got in the fridge. I tend to create my own salad dressings when the fridge isn’t stocked, I can be pretty picky about my flavors, but I’m really excited to give this one a try–
Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette
1/2 cup of chopped cilantro
1/4 cup canola oil
1-2 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar OR red wine vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp oregano
Use am immersion blender or a regular blender to blend the dressing. Let the flavors mingle for at least 30 minutes before using.
