Honey Orange Vinaigrette

This creation took some time people and it was totally worth it! I made it in my quest to re-create South City Kitchen's strawberry salad and wanting to make a similar vinaigrette like the one they had paired with it. I am not trying to toot my own horn BUT I think I crushed it. And when I tell you this dressing has A LOT of flavor...it has A LOT of flavor. Still light because it's a vinaigrette so it is great for any summer time salad! Check it!

• 1/2 tbsp. Shallot 
• Zest of 1/4 of an Orange (about 1 tbsp. adjust to taste depending on how "orangey" you like things)
