South Beach Diet Balsamic Vinaigrette
"From the South Beach Diet Book. This is a phase I recipe. You can whip this up in about 30 seconds. It's great on everything from salads to chicken or fish. Two tbs. over a cold chicken breast and some greens makes a great SBD lunch."

I tripled this recipe so id have it on hand for a while. I used dry herbs and its fantastic! Its really good over chicken breast also, yuummmmyyyy! -
My husband and I love this Recipe. BUT, when I refrigerate it, the olive oil congeals into a big blob and we cannot use it. I am so surprised that no one else has written about that problem. -
Simple. Fast. Healthy. Tasty. -
Super quick and easy, and delicious, too! I always keep these ingredients on hand. I used dried herbs this time, but plan to try it with fresh soon. -
I use olive oil and balsamic vinegar as a salad dressing, marinate on chicken but LOVE it on portabella mushroom before my husband grills them. YUM! Never tried adding herbs. Can't wait! Thanks for sharing!

I hate to bake (almost as much as I hate to vacuum!), and I'll go to great lengths to avoid having to make cookies.
