No, this is not that sweet, tomatoed stuff that somehow has gotten the name “French dressing.” No Frenchman would eat that stuff on a bet! This is a classic vinaigrette dressing.
YIELD: 12 servings, each with only a trace of carbohydrates, fiber, and protein.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 to 1/3 cup wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Put all the ingredients in a container with a tight lid, and shake well.
- Shake again before pouring over salad and tossing.
NOTE:
The French Vinaigrette and Italian Vinaigrette Dressing recipes make approximately enough for two big, family-size salads, but feel free to double them and keep them in the fridge.
