Make dressing by combining all ingredients. Measuring directly into the food processor then blending for about 10 seconds makes a smooth dressing.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Some types of vinegar—including red wine vinegar, apple cider vinegar, balsamic vinegar, and cane vinegar—are gluten-free. Other types of vinegar—for example, non-distilled vinegars made from the gluten grains wheat, barley, and rye, and malt vinegar made from barley—are not gluten-free. One needs to check the labels.

This is a great salad/vegetable dish to make when you are having company for a few days. It improves when made a day ahead as the flavours blend so it is generally made ahead and served on the second day of my guest's visit. Add shrimp for a complete light meal or serve alongside grilled chicken, pork tenderloin....so many choices.
