Blueberry Dressing

- 1 clove garlic

- 1 Tablespoon dijon mustard
- ½ cup champagne vinegar or substitute balsamic vinegar
- ½ cup water
Instructions

- The dressing thickens when chilled, leaving it in the blender cup and blending again right before serving.
Notes
- Water acts as an emulsifier to replace oil in dressings.
- When using fresh fruit in dressings, I suggest buying fresh and organic.
- A great substitute for champagne vinegar is either rice wine vinegar or white wine vinegar. The rice wine vinegar is a bit sweeter when compared to the white wine vinegar.
- Choose date syrup or agave nectar as a replacement for maple syrup in recipes when not using sugar.
- This dressing with stay fresh for 5 days in the refrigerator.
