I love salad
Pin It
I don't think that's a secret to anyone who knows me :) I'm not talking a plain o'le garden salad - I like EVERYTHING in my salad - lettuce or spinach, peppers, mushrooms, mandarin oranges, craisins, onions, mushrooms, zucchini (green/yellow), cauliflower, broccoli, cucumber...you name it, I'll throw it in a salad! Usually I top my salad with salsa rather than salad dressing or maybe even some turkey chili. Tonight I decided to try something different. Before I went on vacation, my friend Karen and I went to a place called Liquid Gold. They sell flavoured olive oils and balsamic vinegars. For tonight's salad I used chipotle infused olive oil and maple balsamic vinegar....OH MY!!! My new fav...a way to get in my healthy oils and FABULOUS taste!! I have some other vinegar flavours to try - mango, lemon, cinnamon...oh the combinations....stay tuned! I'd show you a picture of tonight's salad, but...um, I ate it THAT quick!

Sounds delightful!
omg i love anything chipotle infused :0) I used to hate (absolutely HATE) eating salads.. i was quite infamous for it until I started adding seasonings and different veggies in.. healthy fats, healthy grains... salsa as you mentioned.. the combinations are so endless I am now a salad lover <3 I hope you share any other great flavor combos you run across.. i havent experimented with flavor infused oils... yet :)
Yummy! I was just introduced to liquid gold at home this week - its delic! Will need to go when I'm back!
for sure! It's not cheap, but oh so good!
