Cilantro-Lime Vinaigrette
I’m a big salad eater, so I am always throwing together different dressings. This one was so tasty, I just had to share. Great on salads, drizzled on grilled chicken, fish or veggies.
This simple dressing is refreshing. I love the burst of flavor with the fresh lime juice. For best results, be sure to use only the freshest ingredients when making this vinaigrette~
Cilantro-Lime Vinaigrette

- Serve immediately or keep in fridge for up to 1 week.
Ok…I am not sure how in the world I missed this recipe! It’s definitely being made this coming week!! I just found another dressing that I’ve gotten hooked on…and even expanded it to use as a “sauce” for rice noodles with chicken and cashews. (yea, I’m a little weird when it comes to trying foods…I can come up with some crazy combos!!) Anyway…here’s the dressing if you ever want to try it. http://www.dailygarnish.com/2011/01/my-favorite-homemade-salad-dressing.html
What kind of oil do you use in this recipe?
I have used both olive oil and grapeseed oil. It works with whatever you have in your pantry :)
What a quick and delicious vinaigrette! I was getting Thanksgiving menu ideas from your website and stumbled upon this recipe. I quickly made it up as I had all the ingredients on hand and poured a generous amount over our steamed veggies tonight (carrots, zucchini & peas)… absolutely delicious!! The children came back for seconds, it was such a lovely change from plain steamed veg! :)
