The Flying Kitchen

This vinaigrette dressing is bright, sparkly, cherry and full-flavored. I made this out of the leftover cranberries I had on hand from Thanksgiving.  The cranberries make a wonderful tart vinaigrette and the maple syrup tamps down any bitterness easily while adding just the right amount of balanced maple flavor.  This makes a versatile dressing for everyday use as well as festive holiday meals.

This dressing is very easy to put together, and is festive, refreshing and versatile.

I especially love this with a salad of

• greens
• avocado
• apple
• chicken, and
• slivered toasted almonds

This vinaigrette will be great with your holiday dinner or to make your lunch salads more seasonal.
