Love making our own dressing! We usually mix some olive oil, red wine vinegar, spicy mustard, and salt and pepper together – so easy and delicious!
I LOVE mustard in dressing, but my husband doesn’t. He’s a weirdo, apparently. 🙂 Red wine vinegar and olive oil is one of my favorite dressings as well. Thanks for stopping by!
