Confession: I’m a half-hearted gardener.

I want the fruits of a great home vegetable garden but don’t want to put in the work. I simply want to plant the seeds, walk away, and have a thriving garden in a few weeks. One can dream, right?

Despite my lack of time and effort, I still managed to grow a little spinach and lettuce this year that I am quite proud of. It’s also worth noting that these plants are SURVIVORS. Despite all odds (i.e. being planted by a 3 & 5 year old, not being regularly watered, and fending off the encroaching weeds), they have grown!

Now that it’s time to harvest my crop, I have been on the hunt for some great salad dressings. Since I’m probably not the only one excited to eat fresh lettuce and spinach, I thought creating a roundup of homemade salad dressings would be helpful. Truth be told, I’ll probably use this resource the most! Anyway, hope you guys are enjoying the fresh produce that comes with the spring season. Enjoy!
