Week 45 - Lime French Dressing

 Lime French Dressing

Week 45 of 52

Salad #7

I decided to make another salad dressing for my last salad recipe.  Week 16 was also a dressing. That was the Vinaigrette/French dressing which I've made a few times since.  This dressing is similar, only this one uses lime, not lemon. I made this dressing to go with a garden salad of mixed greens, radish, carrot, cucumber and a sprinkle of cheese. I served it with an onion tart I made. This Lime French Dressing is from Pillsbury's The Green Giant Vegetable Cookbook published in 1980.  This dressing has a nice tang to it, and I liked it, but I do still like the Week 16 dressing better.

Ingredients:

1/3 cup oil

1/4 cup lime juice (the recipe says you can use lemon in place of lime)

1 garlic clove, minced

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon sugar

1/8 teaspoon paprika

1/8 teaspoon pepper

3 garlic cloves, quartered (I didn't use the quartered cloves, because in the original recipe, you remove the quartered garlic cloves after 1 to 2 hours)

Directions:

Combine all ingredients, except the quartered garlic cloves (If you are using them) in a container with a tight fitting lid. Shake well after ensuring the lid is secured. If you use the quartered garlic cloves, remove them after 1 to 2 hours and your dressing is ready. This recipe makes about 1/2 cup.
