Tomato Basil (All Natural Salad Dressing

 

 

This is a dressing that is refreshing, tasty, and the best part is no preservatives.

 

Ingredients

1 Pint of Cherry Tomatoes

1 Teaspoon of Honey

3-4 Leaves of Fresh Basil (Dry Basil would do)

1 Cup of Olive Oil

Garlic or Garlic Paste

Vinegar (White or Apple Cider)

Salt

Pepper

Directions

This is almost as simple as it sounds. You can double the ingredients for larger batches and save it in the fridge for later.

 In a blender add your cherry tomatoes and honey then pulse for a few minutes until it’s broken down.

Add your basil and a few cloves of garlic or garlic paste . (I personally use garlic paste because it’s already broken down). Continue pulsing the mixture.

Add in your vinegar but not to much you don’t want to overpower the taste of your tomato and basil, you also don’t want an over load of oil either (Vinegar thins out oil when both is ingested together).

Add in your Olive oil and continuous blend for 5-10 minutes.

Remember it’s a salad dressing the more broke down it is the better.

Place a bowl under a mini strainer and strain your dressing through stirring out all the liquid.

Unless you like thick, pulpy dressing. Season with salt and pepper and let it sit in the fridge and marinate for 30 minutes to a hour before using it. Enjoy!  ( If you want to make this dressing more fattening you can add some parmesan and romano cheese while blending)
