Pepita Lime Vinaigrette
Perfect with Taco Salad
I love a good salad dressing. When I started avoiding oils in my dressings, I needed to create some satisfying options in order to kick my salad game up a bit. One of my favorite Austin restaurants, Casa De Luz, makes all of their dressings with whole ingredients. The dressings contain healthy fats from blended nuts and seeds. I missed a little fat in my dressings when I stopped making them with olive oil. Now I enjoy them even more! I hope you do, too.
