Cilantro Lemon Dressing


Since I got that huge head of Green Lead lettuce today I wanted to have a salad.  So I did...and finished the dressing we had.  Whoops...anyway, I decided to try making some that kind of tasted like the great stuff at Qdoba.  Theirs is Cilantro Lime Dressing for their Mango Chicken Salad.  Anyway, since I didn't have limes...I changed it to lemon.  I also don't think mine tastes much like theirs...but it is good.  So here's the recipe: :)

Cilantro Lemon Dressing

1 T. Lemon Juice

1/3 c.  Fresh Cilantro

2 T. Olive Oil

1/4 c. Apple Cider Vineagar

1 T. Honey

1.  Put all five ingredients into a blender or food processor and mix until completely combined.

2.  Pour into container of choice.  I used a funnel and put in a glass dressing bottle.  (That no longer had dressing in it, and I washed it of course.)

3.  Get creative with using this on salads.  I am thinking of making some Qdoba-esk salads tonight for use with this.  :)

  2. I tried the recipe as is and I prefer to use all lemon juice instead of the apple cider vinegar and use double the honey. I prefer the tartness of lemon to that of apple cider vinegar. -Michael
