Strawberry Salad Dressing

     It's good to buy produce from the farmer's market because it's locally grown and supports farmers. We recently went there to buy fresh strawberries to use as a dressing.  I just posted a vegetable salad recipe, and this is a unique way to serve this fantastic fruit. Pureed strawberry can be a colorful dressing with creamy consistency. It also has nutritional benefits: fiber and Vitamin C. So what is your favorite salad dressing?

Ingredients:

1 cup strawberries, (6 large berries), rinsed, hulled and sliced

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

3/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1/2 teaspoon sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons almond oil, or canola oil

Directions:

Place strawberries, vinegar, pepper, sugar and salt in a blender or food processor; process until pureed, stopping once or twice to scrape down the sides. Add oil and process until smooth.
