Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette

Last night I made Taco Salad and instead of loading on the sour cream and guacamole I whipped up a fresh vinaigrette to drizzle on top and I have to say if you like a little zip on your salad, this cilantro and lime dressing will hit the spot.


Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette

· 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

· 2 tablespoons olive oil

· 1 tablespoon cider vinegar

· 1 teaspoon grated lime rind

· 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

· 1/4 teaspoon salt

· 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

· 1/4 teaspoon chili powder

· 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

· 1 garlic clove, peeled


Put all ingredients in a blender and mix well. I used our handy emulsion blender for this which makes for easier clean up!
