Tasty Tuesday

Welcome friends to Tasty Tuesday. We hope you'll link up and join the fun today.

After the glutony of the past few months (Halloween candy, Thanksgiving feasts and Holiday treats) I'm sure many of us plan to work on our waistlines or eating habits once the New Year begins. I thought I would share a light and healthy salad dressing to get us started on the right foot. I always keep this made up and in my fridge.

Balsamic dressing:

1/2 cup EEOO

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

Juice of 1 orange (1/4 cup) - you can use lemon instead or in addition

1/2 tsp oregano

1/2 tsp basil

1 Tbs dijon mustard

3 garlic cloves crushed fine

salt and pepper

Or if you are like me and are not ready for the New Year diet to begin...here's one more tasty treat to salivate over...

Quick question, Do we have to have the recipe in our post or can we just feature a photo of something we had or made the past week from a previous post?

Thanks for another blog hop. I see that many people have questions and with all do respect, maybe FTLOB could reiterate what Tasty Tuesday is all about and what FTLOB likes to see done with it. It would be a good refresher for those who have been joining in on the hop for a while and introduce new members to the full concept so there is little confusion. You know I found myself at a lost for a while there and I'd really appreciate the story well.

Looking foward to more.

The balsamic dressing looks delicious. I make a similar version without the oregano and basil. I think I have to try this version next...
Happy Tuesday!
