We’ve been having a lot of fun experimenting with salads and dressings lately. I have noticed an amazing change in my tastes since I bought a juicer last month. I start the day off with a 12-16 ounces of fresh vegetable juice. Now I am actually craving vegetables. Crazy huh? So we have been really enjoying all of the fresh salad greens that are in season right now.
Blue Cheese Dressing
4 Tbsp Olive Oil
2 Tbsp Red Win Vinegar (or lemon juice)
4 Tbsp Blue Cheese (or Roquefort if you can find it)
1 tsp raw honey
2 tsp Dijon mustard
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup thick yogurt (or mayo or sour cream)
Mix all ingredients in a bowl and funnel into an old salad dressing bottle. We like ours chunky, so I just mix it up with a fork. If you like it creamy, you can purée until smooth. Delicious!

I’ll have to try this. I love blue cheese (never thought I would) and I’ve been having salad left and right- the more I eat them the more I crave them too.
