Blue Cheese Vinaigrette

 I love a good Homemade Blue Cheese Salad Dressing.  I especially love Mr. Devilish Dish's version.  And I definitely love a good creamy blue cheese dressing with buffalo wings.  But sometimes I just want to enjoy a salad with a tangy vinaigrette-style dressing. This blends the best of both worlds.  A tangy, vinegar-based dressing with crumbles of delicious blue cheese.  Not only is this zesty dressing delicious over salad greens, it would be so good drizzled over a big platter of grilled vegetables.  We love to enjoy this dressing with a salad alongside a juicy steak.  You'll love this too, especially if you're looking for that familiar bite of blue cheese, without the heaviness of a creamy-style dressing.  Lighter, tangy-er and perfect for spring and summer salads, and a great twist for a traditional wedge salad too!

A tangy, tasty twist on a traditional
creamy dressing.
Just a handful of ingredients for this
delicious dressing.
Blend everything together in a blender.
If you prefer a chunkier dressing,
stir in the blue cheese AFTER blending.
Enjoy over a salad, grilled vegetables
or even a wedge salad.

Save a few blue cheese
crumbles to top your salad!

 




BLUE CHEESE VINAIGRETTE

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 small clove garlic, minced
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup good quality olive oil

Place everything in a blender and blend until smooth.  If you want the chunkiness of the blue cheese crumbles, blend everything except the blue cheese, and then stir it in afterwards.  We saved some extra blue cheese crumbles to top our salad too.  Refrigerate until serving if not using immediately.
