The winter blues are setting in and the best way that I know to combat this is with healthy fresh foods.

Today’s salad is one of my favorites as it has raspberries in it; sweet and juicy, full of antioxidants and vitamins.

I made an easy olive oil balsamic vinaigrette.

I put 2 parts olive oil to 1 part balsamic vinegar in a glass jar and shake it vigorously.

The result is a thick fully emulsified dressing that I can serve and store with ease.
