Here's a really good one!
Balsamic Vinaigrette
3/4 C extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
Zest of one lemon
Whisk together (I blend mine). Toss w/ your favorite salad greens!
This recipe makes 1 cup, but you can double it.
You can also add a touch of honey, it helps keep the dressing from separating so quickly, then let it sit at room temp for about an hour. Vinaigrette's are best made in the blender.0 -

Creamy Salad Dressing
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
½ cup nonfat yogurt (I use chobani)
¼ cup Country Dijon mustard
1-2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon lemon juice
5 garlic cloves (minced or pressed)
Place all ingredients in a jar that has a cover. Cover and shake vigorously until well combined. A blender works great, as well as a pampered chef salad dressing mixer / bottle

You can play with the vinegars & mustards in these recipes to change up the flavor. I like to use a grainy “country” Dijon dressing and love “Garlic Wine Vinegar” in these. Also, Pampered Chef makes a terrific salad dressing mixer/container (shake and pour type) and it fits these ingredients perfectly (even enough room to double the recipe)!0 -

Here's what I use for lunch every day. Keep in mind that I make it fresh every evening so this is for 1 serving. If you like somewhat spicy Asian dressing then I think this is great.
1 Tbsp Red Miso Paste
1 Tbsp Rice Vinegar
2 Tbsp Water
1/2 Tsp Olive Oil
1 Tsp Onion Powder
1/2 Tsp Wasabi
Just mix it all thoroughly. You could chop fresh onion and put it in a bblender instead of the onion powder but I don't usually have the time. I put in closer to 1 tsp of wasabi but I like it hotterand it's up to you (BTW, I tried usuing wasabi powder and it didn't work at all).
I have it over romaine lettuce, daikon, cucumber, tomato, a hard boiled egg (sliced) and marinated baked tofu.0 -
