This dressing is fantastic! I love it on grilled shrimp, chicken or even a salad. I haven't tried potatoes or grilled vegetables, but I think it would work on those as well.
Honeyed Lemon-Dijon Vinaigrette
This bright, zesty vinaigrette is great on any tossed salad. It's also a good marinade for fish, seafood, or chicken, and it makes a tasty sauce for roast veal.
Yield: About 1 1/2 cups (serving size: 1 tablespoon)
