Raspberry Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing
This raspberry balsamic dressing tastes fantastic on a salad with fruit (apples are my favorite) or even as a bread dip! I was tired of trying bottle after bottle of dressing and not finding anything close to my favorite restaurant-inspired salad until I made this recipe.
