The Secret of a Perfectly Dressed Salad

I do love salads, mostly for the countless options they offer either as a main course or a side dish; however I usually don't care for the dressing. To me if salad is fresh and crispy, it does not need to be wilted in ton of calorie packed liquids.

Occasionally I would use home made Raspberry or Strawberry Vinaigrette which goes amazingly well with spinach and can be prepared well within reasonable calorie budget but mostly a tad bit of balsamic vinegar will do the trick for me.

And for all those who feel the same way I have a little tip to share on how to dress your salad evenly using less dressing than you would usually use. The secret is simple - spray it on, DO NOT pour it on.

A while back while working on a craft project I came across a misting bottle made by Hero Arts. Once I was done with my project, I kept thinking of another use for this cool little thing and a idea was born... I poured balsamic vinegar in it and gave it a try. It quickly became my #1 dressing tool.



It does not work well for heavy creamy dressings but who would need those on a good salad anyway!
