Blue Cheese Vinaigrette

If you like blue cheese as much as I do, then you are going to love this recipe. I often add blue cheese crumbles to a salad when I make it, but they tend to scatter and I don’t get that wonderful blue cheese tang in every bite. Over the weekend I wanted to change that, and decided that the best way to get full blue cheese coverage was to include it in the dressing so that absolutely every bit of the salad was coated. This dressing is so good you won’t believe it. It works beautifully on spinach salads, green salads, and salads with fruits and nuts in them. Try it on anything; you will love it.
Blue Cheese Vinaigrette

¾ c.
light olive oil
½ c. apple cider vinegar
1 t. dried oregano
1½ t. garlic powder
½ t. lemon pepper seasoning
¼ t. kosher salt, more or less to taste
1/8 t. freshly ground, black pepper, more or less to taste
 t.
dried parsley
4 oz. blue cheese, divided

Place all ingredients into the work bowl of a
mini food processor EXCEPT 2 ounces of the blue cheese. Blend until emulsified, turn out into a storage container, and stir in the remaining blue cheese. For best results, refrigerate overnight before serving. Best when used within 2 to 3 days.

Years ago my SIL sent me a box of Maytag blue cheese - wish I had this recipe then! Looks really, really good Pattie.
