Karen’s Strawberry Vinaigrette
Jul 07, 2016, Updated Apr 15, 2025
A simple vinaigrette with a jolt of natural strawberry flavor. Zesty and not too sweet – with a kick of garlic and chipotle chiles

A wonderful dressing to enrich your favorite salads.
I especially love it with the Spinach & Frisée Salad!
It is made in a blende with the oil drizzles in at the end – creating a Creamy Consistency that clings to the greens.
Double the recipe too… you’ll love it
