Cranberry Almond Vinaigrette Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Danadooley / All my dishes 5 months, 2 weeks ago The idea came from my love for Post Almond and Cranberry Cereal - I thought it was a great flavor combo. I like this over a mixed green salad, potato salad (it works) and even grilled salmon or warm roast turkey breast and glazed ham steaks at Chris... More Prep:15m Servings:6	Danadooley

Oh my! Cranberries and almonds in a vinaigrette -- wow! It lends itself to so many applications! Is it a marinade today? You mentioned salmon but I would expect it would be excellent with shrimp, pork, or chicken, too. Wow. Definitely going to have to give this one a try! Thanks for sharing!

PS -- it needs to be said that you are also an excellent food stylist and photographer!

danadooley 5 months, 1 week ago said:
Waterlily, that is an excellent suggestion. I made this as a dressing or cold sauce but you could blitz it in a blender and Presto Change-o! A marinade! ;) Again, something I should have thought of but didn't - still I'm glad someone did. I imagine it would go very well with pork, chicken or shrimp too, though I only suggested the things that I HAVE already tried with it. One more suggestion I'd like to make is roasted duck breast - Yum!
