Happy Wednesday guys! Thank you all so much for the well-wishes! I feel a tad bit better today - I think it's mainly from actually having to get around and do things, forcing my body to "feel better". It's all mental, right?
I've still got a tad bit of congestion, but for the most part, I'd say that I'm at about 90%. So not too shabby of a turn-around from yesterday's -2%.
Had a volleyball game tonight and it really blew! Lost all 3 games! I have no idea what happened, but we'll just have to take out our aggression on next week's match!
Anyway, I thought I'd keep up with the strawberry theme of this week and post this quick and easy strawberry dressing I whipped up the other day. It was the perfect accompaniment to my salad!
Ingredients:
1 cup strawberries (about 5-6 large ones)
1/3 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
Combine strawberries, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar in a blender or food processor and mix until smooth.
Seriously... that easy? Yup. Sure is!
I'm gonna try to rest up and get back to feeling 110%, but I couldn't just not post on a regularly scheduled day! I'm dedicated, let me tell you! Be back tomorrow to share our CSA goodies with you! Hint, hint - tons more green! Have a good rest of your night (what's left of it anyway - I'm sure most of you are already in bed by now - I know I usually am!)
Glad to hear your feeling better! The dressing sure does sound easy enough...love the color too!
ReplyDeletewowowow, the salad looks good , will have to give the dressing a try
ReplyDeleteWhat an ideal dressing!!! We love strawberry season, and strawberries in salads are just so good. I love the photos of the dressing in the spoon, well done!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are feeling better, spring colds are always tough. Good luck at next week's match! You'll get 'em!
I've heard a lot about dressing up strawberries with balsamic vinegar, but never thought of using them together in a dressing. Brilliant!
ReplyDeletePenny, this is so unique! Kudos to u :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear you are feeling better Peggy! My kids will go crazy if I say this is strawberry dressing! They might eat more salad. 1 cup, 1/3 cup, 1 tsp. I memorized! :-D
ReplyDeleteAww I'm so sorry to hear you're sick love! but I'm glad you're feeling better! That dressing looks divine! I'd want to pour it all over EVERYTHING.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're feeling better...and are well enough to share this dressing! I love fruity salad dressings, and this one looks like it melds the sweetness of berries wonderfully with the sourness of balsamic...Gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteI've got to give this dressing a try. I am not a huge fan of fruits, but when I sneak them in in small doses - I love them. I am currently loving a raspberry vinaigrette - I hope to love this one too!
