Creamy Poppy Seed Dressing
I am really getting into making my own salad dressing. I am constantly amazed at how uncomplicated they are.
My 4yr old after his bite of his Strawberry, Pear, Arugula & Spinach salad he looked at me and said "Mommy what kind of dressing is this?" I replied Poppy Seed. He said with eyes wide opened and a big smile "I LOVE Poppy Seed dressing!". Of course he did it was sweet.
Creamy Poppy Seed Dressing
1/4cp Plain Yogurt (I used lowfat)
1/4cp Sour Cream
1/4cp of Mayo
3tbs Sugar (add another if you want it sweeter)
2 tbs Apple Cider Vinegar
2tbs Poppy Seeds
Whisk all of the ingredients above and refridgerate.
Poppy Seed Dressing (Oil Based)
from Allrecipes.com
1/3 cup white sugar
1/2 cup white vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground dry mustard
1 teaspoon grated onion
1 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1.In a blender or food processor, combine sugar, vinegar, salt, mustard and onion and process for 20 seconds. With blender or food processor on high, gradually add oil in a slow, steady stream. Stir in poppy seeds.
This sounds great! I always look at poppy seed dressing in the store and then never buy it. I'd love to make some of my own!
