Homemade Balsamic Vinaigrette
Most of the time I just buy bottled dressing. I mean, when the store has buy one get one sales all the time, it's just easy to stock up on all the different dressings that our family enjoys. But homemade salad dressing is actually really easy to make, and it always tastes better too.
This balsamic vinaigrette can be made in about five minutes, and you probably have all the ingredients on hand to make it. I love that this vinaigrette recipe keeps for about 2 weeks.
If you are short on time for dinner, pick up a rotisserie chicken and a bag of salad from Sam's. Pull out the jar of balsamic salad dressing and give it a shake and dinner is ready.
This Honey Balsamic Vinaigrette is perfect for summer salads because it is so light and refreshing. It is also delicious drizzled over cut up veggies in a bowl.
Try it on this Veggie Pasta Salad instead of using an oil and vinegar dressing.

When I tell you this dressing is soooo good, believe me. It tastes better than any balsamic salad dressing I've ever had. It definitely tastes better than the $6 bottle of vegan balsamic in my fridge. Thank you for this wonderful recipe. This dressing brought my salad to life and I will continue to use it.

Why is it, I look up recipes and click on them. Then there is like a whole books worth of useless crap like my grandma this or my kids that or I was in the shower and blah blah blah. Just skip all that bull and post the recipe. I could do without scrolling for six hours until I finally get to the recipe. I dont read anything besides the recipe anyways

LOL! 6 hours to get to the bottom of a post??? I would recommend upgrading your computer or getting a better internet package. ? I provide these free recipes for readers to enjoy. I'm sorry if all the info that comes along with the free recipe bothers you.

Well, if you look at the very, very beginning of the post, the first think it says actually is “jump to recipe.” I guess you were so anxious to start scrolling for 6 hours that you missed it.
If you don’t want to hear about someone’s grandma, maybe you could just look on a cooking or recipe site, or be really old school and look for a recipe in a book!
