This was fantastic. I found some strawberries at the store the other day and wanted to use them in something. This was a perfect summer salad for the winter time! My BF was skeptical of the dressing before he tried it (I put it on the side because we would have left overs). While eating it he said this is good....this is really good!

I am very impressed with how tasty this salad was. As a matter of fact we had salad two nights in a row just so I can have more of the dressing! This dressing will be a staple on my salads!

This is by far our favorite summer salad recipe! I make a big batch of this dressing and keep it on hand all summer. We also make it a meal by adding grilled chicken.
