SARASOTA'S FAVORITE CREAMY MUSTARD SALAD DRESSING

This is a great flavorful dressing made right in the blender. It makes a fair amount so you can cut the recipe in 1/2, but I make the whole recipe and then refrigerate for later in the week. I often have a small salad for lunch and this is perfect with it. I love to serve this with Recipe #413909.

SARASOTA'S CREAMY MAPLE BRANDY SALAD DRESSING

This is a wonderful easy dressing. Serve over some greens (romaine, spinach or arugula) with fall fruits, apples, pears, cranberries, nuts, caramelized onions, even blackberries or raspberries are great with this and crumble some blue cheese, gorgorzola, goat cheese, grated fontina or swiss - the combinations are endless. It is just a great dressing. My favorite salad happens to be; candied walnuts, romaine, blackberries, roasted pears, and caramelized onions. It doesn't get much better. You could add some grilled pork or grilled chicken and make a very hearty salad for dinner.
