Another delicious salad with our CSA bounty.
This one is:
- leaf lettuce (CSA)
- tomato wedges (CSA)
- sharp cheddar cheese
- ham from the deli
- honey-mustard dressing
To make honey-mustard dressing, I just squeezed a good amount of mustard into a little bowl, then added some honey and stirred. After that, I whisked in olive oil until it was the consistency I wanted. Super-quick way to make a sweetish dressing that goes very well with salty ham and cheese!

I tandem breastfeed, babywear, cloth diaper, practice elimination communication, homebirth, and co-sleep, but I'm not a hippie.
I followed your recipe and I'll say that it's really good! I even had a funny situation when I was making this. I thought I still had a jar of honey in storage but I didn't see it. So I had to run to the store to buy a bee honey jar. When I got back, my son said that the honey was inside the top cupboard, way far at the back behind other bottles. Ah well, it's ok at least I got a lot of honey to use for different recipes.
Awesome! I'm glad it worked out for you.
This post came at a perfect time for me. I had just read it before I was making dinner, and I decided I wanted to make a salad/slaw out of snow peas and carrots (things in the fridge I wanted to use up, haha). I would never have thought to make a honey mustard dressing if I hadn't read about it here. I did the same thing you described, with a spicy brown mustard, and it was perfect!
