Aunt Maryellen’s Honey Vinaigrette
 Created by Maryellen Nommensen

2 oz. olive oil
1 oz. rice wine vinegar
¼ t. flavored mustard
2 T. honey
¼ t. dried basil (rub it between your hands to release the flavor)

Almost always there is a jar of this vinaigrette sitting on my counter waiting to dress  the next salad I make.   My favorite salad is 2 hands full of rocket (arugula), ½ cup of garbanzo beans, ½ cup halved cherry tomatoes, and 1 oz. of cubed salami, topped with the above vinaigrette….Yum!
