honey + lavender dressing






After a cool Spring and a slow start to the growing season, my herbs are finally taking off.  I've already made a batch of pesto with my plentiful basil, & tonight we had lavender honey dressing.  I grow lavender just for this purpose, and it's such a treat.

Here's my guide, but I'm more a pinch of this, a dash of that, kind of cook...

1/2 cup olive oil
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp lemon juice
dash of garlic & onion powder
1 tsp Dijon mustard                 
1/4 cup honey
1 tbsp fresh lavender
1/2 tsp poppy seeds
salt & pepper to taste
