This is a great recipe for those trying to rope in the calories every once in a while. This tasty dressing is just what a plate of tired vegetables need to add a punch of flavor and will bring some life to a party. So eat light tonight so you can have deep dish pizza for tomorrow night’s dinner.

Total time:
Ingredients
- 3/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
- 1/4 tsp dried minced onion

- 2 Tbsp apricot jam (I use sugarless)
- 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 olive oil
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in blender or use an immersion blender to blend throughly.
- Dressing is better if it has a least 2 hours to sit before use.
- Store in a airtight container for up to a week in the refrigerator.
Great recipe…never thought of using apricot jam before. Usually I have Wilkins & Sons Orange Marmalade, Their Little Scarlet Strawberry Preserves, and of course Welch’s Grape Jam. Would any of there be as good as the apricot for a substitution?
The orange marmalade would be a great addition! Let us know how it turns out.
To balance the lemon anything with a sweet note would work. Using honey or even brown sugar would work as well. Really all you listed would be great and to be honest, never hurts to just try it out-that’s how this recipe evolved. Happy mixing!
