Cilantro-Lime Vinaigrette

Thursday night (another rainy evening) we had company for dinner and I decided to make zucchini & corn enchiladas, sweet pepper rice and salad. This dressing is one of my favorites as a companion to any mexican meal.

I tossed in mixed greens, chunks of avocado, red pepper, red onion and pepitas.

Cilantro-Lime Vinaigrette
4 tbsp. fresh lime juice
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and cored
1 clove garlic
1/4 cup cilantro
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt & Pepper

In a blender, combine the lime juice, jalapeno pepper, garlic, cilantro and oil. Blend until the dressing is creamy. Add salt and pepper to taste.
