Chive & Walnut Dressing

ChiveDressing-3

Life is currently a little chaotic. We are getting our kitchen remodeled, and without a kitchen to play in, I am feeling very lost. Plus, living on takeout food is expensive, boring, and downright unhealthy. I am counting the days until I get to cook and prepare my own food again. We also just got a new puppy, which is adding slightly to the chaos. That said, he is really adorable and alleviates any chaotic stress too. So, this week’s recipe is a super simple dressing. It’s one that can be made in seconds, and can transform a boring green salad into something delicious. We have an abundance of chives in the garden right now, and they add such a great fresh flavor to this dressing. I also added a little walnut vinegar, to give a nutty taste, and some mustard for an extra kick. It’s so good served with some fresh green salad leaves, and the perfect antidote to gloopy takeout food!
