Cranberry Vinaigrette

This cranberry vinaigrette is a good way to use leftover cranberry sauce from Thanksgiving. It’s a simple roll over meal that only requires 3 ingredients.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup leftover cranberry sauce *

1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about 4 limes)

1/3 cup olive oil

1/4 teaspoon salt

splash of water (to thin it out)

Directions:

Blend together all of the ingredients (except for the water) in a blender (or food processor). If it’s too thick, add some water and blend again.  Then toss with salad.

* Here’s my recipe for cranberry sauce:

Ingredients:

1/4 cup maple syrup

1/4 cup water

7.5 oz. carton of fresh organic cranberries

Directions:

Bring the maple syrup and water to a boil.  Add the berries and bring back to a boil.  Cover and simmer, stirring occassionally for about 5 minutes, or until all the berries have popped and it’s starting to gel.  Pour the sauce into a bowl and allow to cool to room temperature.  Chill.
