Roasted Sweet Potatoes & Brussels Sprouts

Roasted Sweet Potato and Brussels Sprouts

These Roasted Sweet Potato & Brussels Sprouts are special. Roasted to perfection, they’re gorgeous as is, but to take them over the top, finish with a sweet, tart White Balsamic Vinaigrette.

Maple Dijon Vinaigrette

Maple Dijon Vinaigrette

I always make my salad dressings. Oh, I may have an “emergency” bottle in the fridge, but I just pretty much ignore it. I love that there’s an almost endless variety when I make my own, and I always have a new favorite. My current “crush” is Maple Dijon Vinaigrette.

Cornbread Salad

Cornbread Salad

My sister raved about Cornbread Salad and forced me to make it. It sounds crazy. (Both the recipe and the insistence, lol.) I tried to blow her off, but she wouldn’t let it go. She made me promise to make it and report back! Once I did, I fell in love. Hard.

Fruited Chicken Salad with Honey Dijon

Way back when my sister and I were discussing what should be on the menu for a family get together. We got down to the salad dressing. “Honey Dijon?” I asked. It was kind of a new thing then. “No one likes that,” she said, flatly. But I didn’t say, “I do, I do!” And goodness help me, I do.  Home-made at least, and especially on this Fruited Chicken Salad with Honey Dijon. Don’t tell my sis!
