Honey Mustard Dressing

southwest saladI love homemade salad dressings and I am here to tell you, it is so easy and no big deal to make your own homemade dressing.  Most will keep for up to 3 weeks in the refrigerator and when you make it yourself it isn’t going to include all kinds of weird chemical ingredients that you cannot pronounce!

This is one of my favorites.  Feel free to work with it a bit.  Maybe you like a little more mustard, or a little more cumin.  Whatever.  Make the recipe as is, then add a little more of whatever you fancy!  I love making and keeping my dressings in mason jars.  It’s the best way to really bring it together and makes it easy to use it the 2nd and 3rd time.
