Best Brunchtime Salad With Creamy Raspberry Vinaigrette Recipes

TOSSED SALAD AND RASPBERRY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• For the salad: Place the salad greens in a large bowl. Mix in the cranberries, walnuts, mandarin oranges, grape tomatoes and feta.
• For the vinaigrette: Combine the raspberries, vinegars, sugar and mustard in a blender until smooth. Slowly stream in the oil until combined.

CREAMY RASPBERRY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Heat the raspberries and 1 tablespoon of water in a small saucepan over medium heat, covered.
• After a couple of minutes, juices will begin seeping out of the raspberries. Use a fork to mash the raspberries and allow the mixture to come to a gentle boil.
• Remove the cover from the saucepan and allow the mixture to gently bubble for a couple of minutes, ensuring the raspberries are completely softened. Add the honey and stir to combine.
• Pour the raspberry mixture into a bowl or container and place it in the refrigerator until completely cold.
• Using a fine strainer, strain the raspberry mixture into a bowl, separating the pulp from the syrup. Press the raspberry pulp into the strainer to get out as much liquid as possible. Save the raspberry pulp for a smoothie or to put on ice cream later, and use the raspberry syrup for this dressing.
• In a small blender (I used my magic bullet), combine all of the ingredients, including the raspberry syrup. Blend until completely combined and creamy. If you don't have a blender, you can whisk all of the ingredients together in a bowl vigorously.
• Serve on your favorite salads!
