OXO Good Grips Salad Dressing Shaker {Recipe & Giveaway}

I was given an opportunity by the OXO Blogger Outreach Program to try one of their new "OXO Healthy Eating Tools."  I was given the choice between a few different items and #1 on my list was the OXO Good Grips Salad Dressing Shaker.


Last summer I "discovered" homemade salad dressing....and.my.life.changed.  FOREVER!


You no longer see bottles of store bought salad dressing that last for a ridiculous amount of time in my fridge.  


When I received the "Shaker" in the mail, I was impressed right off the bat.  It's big enough to hold 1.5 cups of dressing, but it's not bulky at all.  Also, it's very sturdy, yet not too heavy.




A few more things I LOVE about my "shaker:"

  • It's BPA Free - Don't know what BPA is?  Check here.  Just trust me when I say you want it nowhere near you!
  • It's Dishwasher Safe - If a product isn't Dishwasher Safe, it's not in my kitchen!  My passion is cooking, NOT cleaning!
  • It has a one-handed open/close seal - Seriously, yo!  I could hold my salad bowl in one hand and OPEN this in the other the immediately pour...perfect for a family gathering!
Here is the first salad dressing recipe I made using my OXO Good Grips Salad Dressing Shaker.


Honey Mustard Vinaigrette 


Ingredients
1/2 cup white vinegar
1 TB honey
1 TB mustard {I like spicy brown}
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp basil
1 tsp oregano
3/4 cup olive oil


Directions
Add all ingredients to the shaker in the order listed.  Close lid & shake away.  DONE!
Pour on the nearest salad and enjoy!




See, I was not kidding when I said it's easy to make your own dressing!


What's even cooler than getting a free salad dressing recipe from me?!?!
