Recently I made a marvelous Garlic Steak Bahn Mi inspired by a Diner’s Drive-Ins and Dives episode. One of the key components of that recipe was what the owner called a Black Pepper Onion Vinaigrette.
The Black Pepper Onion Vinaigrette is fire! It should go right over the beef – my bad adding it last!
I have no garden this year other than my pots of herbs, but I’ve been seeing pics and posts from friends who do. And everywhere, it’s tomatoes, tomatoes, tomatoes! They love this heat! This simple Green Bean Tomato Salad is a fabulous way to put a few to good use.

We have a new fave salad at our house; it’s this Arugula Pear Salad with Ginger Vinaigrette. And as good as all the salad components are, it’s really the vinaigrette that steals the show!

This recipe isn’t exactly “new” to my site, but this fabulous Herby Lemon Vinaigrette really needed its own place to live on its own page. In the past, it’s been part of my Cold Tuna Salad with Green Beans, but this dressing is so versatile, you might want to try it on different salads, maybe use it as a marinade, and maybe even drizzle it over any simply cooked or grilled fish or chicken.

Easy Basil Pesto Vinaigrette has got to be the easiest salad dressing ever! As long as you have a little Pesto, that is! It’s such a quick cheat and will be fabulous on all kinds of greens and/or pasta salads. I used it the other day in my Shaved Brussels Sprouts Salad with Apples & Feta and it was a beautiful marriage.
