made this exactly as recommended except that i substituted lime juice for orange. i used it to marinate some chicken breasts that i pan fried. i poked holes in the breasts and kept dousing the breasts with the mix as they cooked. chicken came out moist and very flavorful. my husband says that from now on i'm in charge of cooking the chicken at our house :).

I have made this now a couple of times and love the flavor of orange for green salads. Since I always make a dressing with Extra Virgin Olive Oil I did substitute the Canola for it. I go lightly on the other seasonings so the orange is not masked. Love honey so appreciate a dressing that calls for honey and not sugar! So nice to have this recipe on hand since salads are usually on the menu at my household.

I made this using Trader Joe's Orange Muscat Champagne vinegar instead of cider, and freshly minced chives for the onion powder, as that's what I had on hand. Was nice and mild in flavor. I did add a little more mustard as I wanted to be able to taste it more and also wanted to thicken the dressing up. Would make again. Thank you for posting the recipe!

<p>I come from a long line of wonderful cooks and doing my best to hold up that tradition. My great-grandparents owned a coffee shop; my Nana was also a great cook and started the tradition of baking around the holidays, both cookies and fruitcakes. After she died, now a decade ago, our family decided to continue in her honor. The picture above is my mother's (Chef Hot Pans) dining room table just before we packed up our Christmas cookie trays. More that 20 kinds of cookies, many of which are from 'Zaar recipes. <br /> <br />I myself am an amateur cook with a penchant for ethnic foods and spice. Currently reforming my menu in favor of healthy dishes lower in fat with lots of grains and vegetables. My favorite cuisines are Mexican, Southwestern and North African. <br /> <br /> <br />Some of my favorite public cookbooks include:</p>
