Herb Vinaigrette

Chef’s Tips: To add color, use a combination of green, red, yellow and/or orange bell peppers.

For flavor variety, substitute Dijon for dry yellow mustard.

Always use a good quality oil and vinegar when making vinaigrette.

Ingredients

• 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
• 2 teaspoons dry yellow mustard
• 2 teaspoons minced fresh oregano

• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 3/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
