Strawberry Vinaigrette

This delicious Strawberry Vinaigrette recipe is sure to make your salads sing. Try this fresh strawberry salad dressing recipe tonight!

Recently, I attended a wedding and the salad was served with a fresh, tangy strawberry dressing that I instantly fell in love with and of course, had to make! 

This dressing is the epitome of smooth California flavor. It’s clean and not overly sweet, all while being possibly the easiest thing to make on the planet.
