How to Make Low Carb Balsamic Dressing

  1. In a blender, combine 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon Splenda, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Blend until smooth and emulsified (about 30 seconds).
  3. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more Splenda for sweetness or balsamic vinegar for tang.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. For even better flavor, chill overnight.
  5. Toss your favorite salad greens (we recommend crisp romaine) with the dressing. Top with toasted pine nuts and crumbled goat cheese before serving.
