Fresh Fig Feta Vinaigrette

written by STEPH November 1, 2013

 This luscious vinaigrette is subtly sweet but pleasantly savory at the same time.  The figs and feta combine so well together.  This dressing is great on any fresh salad or even as a dip for bread, fruits or veggies : )

Fresh-Fig-Vinaigrette

Once I started to make my own salad dressing and realized how simple and flavorful it was, I couldn’t eat the store bought dressings anymore.  The best part is, you know exactly what ingredients are in it.

_Fig-Vinaigrette

Recipe – Approx. 1  Cup

  • 1 Cups (about 7 – 10) Fresh Figs – quartered
  • 3 Tablespoons Cup Feta Cheese
  • 1/4 Cup + 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/4 Cup Champagne Vinegar
  • 1 Small Clove Garlic
  • 1/8 Teaspoon Sea Salt

Instructions:

 Cut the stems off the figs and put into a food processor or blender, measure all the other ingredients and puree until smooth.

Health benefits:

Figs are high in potassium, which helps control high blood pressure. They have a high concentration of fiber that is helpful in digestion, weight management, constipation; helps prevent colon cancer, post-menopausal breast cancer, hypertension, and diabetes. The soluble fiber pectin, helps pull out excess cholesterol. They are also high in calcium that strengthens bones and help reduce macular degeneration. They are very high in antioxidants that are excellent for the liver.
