Sherry Shallot Vinaigrette Recipe

This Sherry Shallot Vinaigrette goes with many many salads! I can not count the number of times that my husband has said, “I just feel like a really good salad for dinner. Doesn’t that just sound so good?” Most of the time, I do agree with him. 😉 We love salads at our house! An excellent salad full of veggies and a good protein is where it’s at! It makes me feel so refreshed during the day. My body does not feel right if I don’t have enough protein in it. I literally can immediately tell if my body is lacking protein (especially when pregnant) and I have to eat something with protein right away to feel better. That’s why adding a healthy protein to our salads is always a must! Check below for a list of healthy and filling salads that go great with our Sherry Shallot Vinaigrette!

Fit Friday Fun!

 Some of my favorite summer activities include swimming, biking, hiking, trail running, and chasing after kids. Do you know what all of these activities require, what they all have in common? Core. All of these activities require a strong activated core. So this week we have a core workout for our fun Fit Friday post.

 

All of these movements, along with all core movements, require you to keep focus on your core and keeping it activated. That is the only way to work your core properly.

Today’s Sherry Shallot Vinaigrette Recipe will go fabulously with any of these salads:

•  Tropical Avocado Kale Salad
• Peach, Gorgonzola Cheese, and Chicken Salad
• Apple Cucumber Tossed Salad
• Roasted Mushroom, Avocado, and Ricotta Salad
• Blueberry, Almond, Chicken Salad with Honey Lemon Vinaigrette
• Pear, Blackberry, and Ricotta Spinach Salad
• Asian Pear, Avocado, and Blue Cheese Salad
• Salmon Avocado Salad
