I had a dinner party with my friends and decided to make dinner & dessert from recipes found on Pinterest. As we all know, I get super nervous when hosting, but do it anyways. Can you imagine my anxiety level??? Luckily, my friends don't mind being my guinea pigs! True friends rock!
The original post made this vinaigrette and paired it with a spinach cobb salad. I (still) don't eat eggs so I changed the salad up a little. Was it tasty? Why, yes! All bowls were empty! It was absolutely delicious! Next time I decide to make it, I'll be sure to take a photograph for you.
Roasted Garlic Vinaigrette
2 heads of garlic, roasted and peeled
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp honey
Cut the pointy top off of the garlic. Brush with olive oil and roast them in a pan at 400 degrees for about 25 minutes, until it is starting to turn golden brown and soft. Remove from the oven, allow to cool. Once the garlic is cool, peel the skin off. Discard the skins, save the garlic.
Add all the ingredients to the food processor and process until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
The salad I made was simple. I used spinach, diced roma tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, turkey bacon crumbles, and carrots. If you're a meat eater, might I suggest adding chicken. Yum!
