Raspberry Walnut Vinaigrette
From The Whole30 Cookbook, pg.328
Both raspberries and olive oil offer the important nutrients required for DNA repair and reduction of oxidative stress which makes this a healthy and tasty treat for salad dressing.
Ingredients
½ cup fresh, organic raspberries, finely shopped or mashed
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons finely chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon minced fresh cilantro (or ¼ teaspoon dried)
¾ cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt and black pepper
Instructions
- Mix together the raspberries, vinegar, walnuts, and cilantro in a small bowl.
- Drizzle in the olive oil and whisk steadily to emulsify.
- Adjust taste with salt, pepper, (stevia or monk fruit if desired), and toss into salad.
Ideas: Try this with a grilled chicken salad, over baby spinach or on diced cucumbers. You can also swap out the raspberries with any other kind of berry.
