Strawberry Dressing Recipe

This delicious strawberry vinaigrette is rich in vitamin C and a group of antioxidants called phenols. The unique combination of phenols found in strawberries - headed by anthocyanins and ellagitannins - makes strawberries and this vinaigrette good for protecting you against heart disease, cancer, and chronic inflammation.

Ingredients:

6-8 large strawberries
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar or freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup water
1 clove garlic
1 teaspoon honey

Directions:

Blend all ingredients in a strong blender. Add more water if you prefer a lighter consistency. This recipe works just as well if you substitute the strawberries with any other type of berry; blueberries and blackberries work especially well.

We prefer crisp, romaine lettuce over other types of lettuce to eat along with this berry dressing. Enjoy!
