These are my favorite flavors of all time! I will definatly be trying this one! Plus your pictures look scrumptious! Have a great day my friend!
Thank you Serena! They are my favorites too. Every time I make this dressing, there isn’t a drop of leftovers. Can’t wait to hear what you think of it. Have a wonderful day my sweet friend!! oxoxo
I always make my own salad dressings and vinaigrette’s. I was in the mood for a citrus vinaigrette, but I was out of oranges. So I looked for a jalapeño vinaigrette because I had a jalapeño and some cilantro. I found your blog; man am I glad I did. I really loved this – I changed it up slightly, only because I didn’t have red wine vinegar. I love to cook and I’m going to look at some of your other posts and try some of your recipes. You’ve even got me thinking about doing a food blog too. Love your site. Thanks for this recipe.
Welcome Steve, I’m glad you found me too!
I was lookimg for a recipe with jalepenos–Wow! This vinaigrette is awesome. My family raved about my salad with this dressing. Has a great kick but not too spicy. I absolutely love this. Delicious !! Making it again tonight.
That’s awesome to hear! I’ve found that the spice level is so dependent upon the jalapeño (some being more mild than others) but it is a favorite here too! oxo
Hello! I was wondering how long can you keep this dressing for once you make it? Can it stay in the fridge for more than a week?
I would say. Ours never lasts that long but I would certainly think it would be fine for up to 2 weeks refrigerated. oxo
