Mexican Inspired Salad Dressing with Lime and Cilantro

Got this straight from RecipeGirl.

HONEY- LIME DRESSING:

• 1/4 cup lime juice (I used bottled)
• 2 Tbs olive oil
• 2 Tbs honey
• 2 Tbs fresh cilantro (or more to taste)
• 1 clove garlic, peeled and chopped
• 1/2 a jalapeño pepper

I mixed it all up in my small Magic Bullet Express blender. My girls love it for making smoothies and my youngest likes to whip various home spa conconctions in it, but I do like it for quick salad dressings and marinades.

If you don’t have a blender or food processor, I would mince it all up as fine as possible and whisk together.

Put this on a salad of chopped romaine lettuce, sliced olives, halved grape tomatoes and sliced carrots.  Perfect light compliment to the carne asada burritos I made.  And I think tomorrow my lunch will be a nice steak salad with the rest of the dressing!
