Making your own salad dressings is so easy! This is one of my favourites – it can be a salad dressing or a sauce that you can use in fajitas, with cooked meat, with cubed pan roasted tempeh cubes, roasted veggies, boiled potatoes, over a half avocado, a drizzle over sliced hardboiled eggs… It’s really good!!
