    Cup of Yum

  3. Add the parsley and thyme, salt and pepper, taste and adjust seasonings.

Notes

  • What does vinaigrette dressing taste like? Using balsamic vinegar makes a sweet/tart flavor, but "tangy" and "bright" are also words used to describe it!
  • Use honey mustard instead of Dijon for a sweeter flavor, and switch out the balsamic for apple cider vinegar (and a little honey if you like it super sweet)
  • Use Italian Seasoning in place of the parsley and thyme for a different flavor profile
  • Add a little crushed red pepper for a spicy kick!
