Citrus in the winter is my saving grace. It reminds me of sunshine, summer and warm weather. I recently showed you how packed my fruit tower is with large amounts of this seasonal bounty, I just can’t get enough. Plus it’s nice to have a bright little salad to take the gray out of my winter days. The colors alone make me smile.
The dressing itself is very unique. Lemon and maple are something you don’t normally think of as going together. However, they are a match made in heaven, especially in this combination. My Mom taught me this years ago! My next project is going to be a sour cream cake combining them both, look out for that one. I think it will be amazing.
I am running short on time so this was just a quick little post to hopefully get you out of your rut and enjoying a new salad. I promise you will love this one.

I love poppy seed salad dressing. It’s one of those old school recipes that never goes out of style. Iike the maple syrup in it.

Oh, my, girl, this looks so fresh and delicious! I have a very similar poppy seed dressign that I use on so many salads. IT’s our fave! Happy Monday!

Not that I know. This is a version of my Mom’s recipe that she has been making forever! One of our family favorites.
