Honey Lime Dressing

Submitted by Kozmic Blues

"This lovely light dressing is great over fruit salad or mixed greens. I like to sprinkle my greens with a little sesame seed. You can also add a pinch of cayenne to the dressing for a little heat, or maybe a little ginger depending on your taste."

I used this as posted for a green salad and thought it was great. I loved the lime flavour with the cinnamon. Very unique and good. Kind of takes people by surprise. Not often do you get lime in a salad dressing!! Thank you Kozmic Blues.

Used this to dress a melon salad but omitted the paprika and added the ginger as per Becky's suggestion. For fruit salad, I don't think the oil is necessary, but just a bit of sugar is.

That made our entire BBQ Roast Chicken dinner last night. Yum.

I made it for a regular salad and found it too sweet for my preference. I think it would be much better with fruit than veggies.

I'm a lime fanatic and this was awesome! I poured it over greens, some leftover tequila-lime turkey chunks, corn and black beans. It was so good I might just eat this for lunch everyday!! I might even add a little cayenne for some kick next time.
