Recipe: Easy Food Processor Salad Dressing Nuts Style!


This salad dressing is extra delicious with the addition of one fresh green pepper, an entire medium sized onion, and a clove of garlic that you process first before combining with the rest of the ingredients.  A refreshing twist comes from the orange and lemon juices that have a wonderful way to heighten the taste with that bit of citrus.  

Allow those awesome flavor molecules time to properly mingle in your refrigerator.  If you do, the wait will reward your taste buds with a superb salad dressing that will compliment those greens in magnificent style!

If you prefer a less sweet dressing, no problem.  All you need to do is cut the amount of sugar in half.

1 medium green pepper
1 medium onion
1 large clove of garlic
1/4 cup of olive or canola oil
1/3 cup of orange juice
3 tablespoons of lemon juice
2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons of sugar
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/4 teaspoon of black pepper

Clean and then process you green pepper that you cut in pieces along with the cut onion, and the garlic.

Add the orange juice, oil, lemon juice, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper next and keep processing until you have the smooth texture of your liking.

Keep this dressing in the refrigerator covered for about two hours first so those flavors can percolate!
