Warm Bacon Vinaigrette
We dare any salad skeptic to turn down this smoky, tangy vinaigrette. Bacon crumbles, sweet shallots, and sharp dijon form an addictive combination that's perfect for drizzling on greens, roasted veggies, eggs, and more. (We won't tell if you sneak a spoonful plain, either!)
All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwaves and home kitchens to make sure they work — and work well.
