Honey Maple Poppyseed Vinaigrette recipe by Barefeet In The Kitchen

My love of homemade salad dressings and other condiments is a well documented fact. For this salad, I wanted a dressing that would be both dairy free. I really enjoyed the sweetness of the maple syrup and honey combined with fresh lemon juice and champagne vinegar.

 This dressing worked perfectly with one of my favorite salads: spring mix, white nectarines, berries and almonds.

It is a variation on this Stonefruit Salad, but really, anything goes. If you have a favorite fruit, add it in. If you prefer baby spinach leaves, they work great with a fruit salad as well.

    Yay for poppy seeds 😉
    This dressing seems like it would make a good marinade for chicken, too.

    I haven't tried champagne vinegar that I know of. Sounds wonderful. Mary the photo with the little drop of dressing is fantastic. Your salads are always terrific. I made one of your recipes yesterday – it included Brussels sprouts, applewood smoked bacon, and apples. I'm going to post it later this week if that's ok. It was fantastic! Thanks for another great recommendation.

    Looks like a fantastic recipe! It would go well with my favorite current salad: greens, blueberries, toasted pecans, and blue cheese! Thanks!
