A few weeks ago, a dear friend shared a new dressing recipe with me that I thought you might like to try!

I’m going to call it Melissa’s Best Italian Dressing.

1/2 cup avocado oil
1/4 cup red or white wine vinegar
2 tsp honey
2 Tbs Parmesan (no need to grate it first, as it will be broken up in the blender)
few drops lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 tsp basil (I used fresh and that was good)
1/8 tsp oregano
dash black pepper

Put all ingredients into a blender, pulse and voila! You have a creamy, delicious salad dressing or marinate. I used it to marinate these cucumbers and they were so good.

I hope you are getting a lot of fresh produce to enjoy! More recipes coming up next week for simple ways to use all kinds of squash easily…

Have a wonderful weekend.

Love,

Jacque

P.S. Thank you for the lovely dinner and the dressing recipe Melissa!!

P.P.S. A good idea was passed along to me on this recipe: someone added half an avocado! Doesn’t that sound creamy and nice? I also have been experimenting with adding fresh chives, garlic, apple cider vinegar and Pecorino Romano cheese in place of the Parmesan. So, so good!
