Fresh Strawberry Dressing

Pureed strawberries make a distinctive base for a colorful dressing with a creamy consistency. It is also a nice way to dress a salad of arugula, goat cheese and toasted pecans.

Ingredients

• 1 cup strawberries, rinsed, hulled and sliced
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 0.75 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons almond oil or canola oil

Steps

1. Place strawberries, vinegar, pepper, sugar and salt in a blender or food processor; process until pureed, stopping once or twice to scrape down the sides. Add oil and process until smooth.
