Say goodbye to acidic, bland, and unhealthy vinaigrettes, and say hello to balance, flavor, and nutrition! An olive/canola oil blend adds essential monounsaturated fatty acids, which are excellent for heart health. This balsamic vinaigrette is blended with a combination of dried dates, figs, prunes, and raisins to add natural sweetness and fiber without adding sugar. 

Yield: 1 quart

Directions

CCP: No bare hand contact with ready to eat food. 

  1. Place California Dried Fruit Medley and boiling water in a blender and let sit for 15 minutes.  
  2. Add oil, balsamic vinegar, and salt to fruit. 
  3. Puree until no large chunks of dried fruit remain, and vinaigrette is mostly smooth. 

Ingredients

1 cup California Dried Fruit Medley (diced dates, figs, prunes, and raisins) 
1 cup boiling water 
3 cups olive/canola oil blend
