I don’t know about you, but I enjoy creating my own dressing at home. Sometimes I like to make an Asian, Italian, yogurt based, or fruit infused dressings. I love to experiment. Today is a simple mustard vinaigrette and consists of only 5 ingredients, with real food ingredients, and a no fuss condiment. Plus you don’t have to worry about the excess sugar, flavorings and chemical alternations when buying from the store. It’s fun, creative and something you will feel good about serving to guests and family. This will keep well in the refrigerator for about a few days or so. I enjoy utilizing the mason jars with a tightly  fitted lid and descriptive label for my condiments. Simple. Classy. Good for you.
